Using dried flowers and sketches to create a reference book of plants.
I've been thinking and playing with the idea in my head to create a sketchbook/scrapbook/reference book of some flowers I collected and dried last year.
I am using a Seawhite pocket concertina book in a box.
The sketch of the Black Medic plant which has tiny yellow flowers and black seed pods. It is also known as Hop Clover or Yellow Trefoil. It is a wildflower found on dry grassland, road banks and waste places. I found this quite near to home on a path between a school and a field. It is a valuable source for pollinators.
Here the dried flower itself can be see quite clearly, especially the seed pods.
