How do you go about with the vinegar for a pre-treatment? how and how much do you use?
Thanks!

I know right! Looks well fun! I tried to pull off some of my dying flowers from my hollyhock today (it had been raining) and came away with red dye over my fingers -so Hollyhocks will probably work quite well Smile

I do not know what a hollyhock is! But red dye sounds good to me!

[img] hollyhock by Claire-Michelle Pearson, on Flickr[/img]

This is the one outside the front of my house. It's a double-headed one, so normally the petals don't look so full and would only be one layer. It's so cute watching the bees try and jam themselves inbetween the petals to get to the pollen Smile

They grow quite tall - this one is about 8-9ft (It's being propped up by a metal curtain pole because it was bent in front of the door).

Can you spot the weed in the window Laughing

I think, this will be the right place for my question. I'd love to see the natural dying video, but as I am from Germany (and they have funny ideas about music rights and everything) I can't. Can anyone tell me how I could watch it? Is there any other place where it is uploaded or anything?
Thanks for coming answers. Wink
Mia
