Pink Rose Buds (0.5kg)

Half a kilo of dried pink rose buds, whole and evenly dried, the trade-sized bag for anyone who uses them by the handful. Rose buds are the prettiest of the dried flowers and the most versatile: scattered as wedding confetti, piled in a bowl as potpourri, pressed into the tops of soaps and candles, added to bath salts and bath fizzers, floated in a bath, or dropped into a tea blend, where a few buds turn a black tea into something that looks and tastes of June. They keep their colour and shape for months, and a bowl of them on a dressing table is a decoration in itself. Five hundred grams is a lot of buds, enough for a wedding's worth of confetti or a season of making, and the bag keeps sealed and out of the light. Bought by makers, florists, tea blenders and brides, and by people who simply like a bowl of roses that will not die.
