Today I began an experiment with the orange Lilies’. As I do not have any use for the colors they are giving at the moment, I figured now was a good as time as any to see if harvesting the essential parts and saving them in various means might yield fruit.

They have to retain their moisture so until I learn of some other possibilities I have placed a few anther wrapped in a leaf into both the refrigerator and the freezer and will take them out in a few weeks and see how the colors are holding up.

It is mostly the anthers that I am concerned with as they tend to lose their gusto over time as their pollen is harvested or just dries out.
