PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an extremely easy method for the preparation of a dry flower free from the problem of the adhesion of a granular desiccant to a live flower to cause undesirable appearance in the case of drying a live flower by embedding in a granular desiccant, and dispensing with the work to remove the granular desiccant from the dry flower.SOLUTION: The method for the preparation of a dry flower includes a powder-attaching step of attaching a powder to the whole surface of a live flower to be dried by embedding it in a granular desiccant, a drying step of drying the live flower holding the powder attached in the powder attaching step by embedding the flower in the granular desiccant, and a transparent resin film forming step of forming a film of a transparent resin on the surface of the dried flower free from the granular desiccant after the drying step.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】 本発明は生花を粒状の乾燥剤に埋め込んで乾燥させる際に、生花に粒状の乾燥剤が付着して見苦しくなったり、粒状の乾燥剤の除去作業が不要、あるいは非常に簡単な乾燥花の製造方法を得るにある。【解決手段】 粒状の乾燥剤に埋めて乾燥させる生花の表面全体にパウダーを付着させるパウダー付着工程と、このパウダー付着工程でパウダーが付着された生花を粒状の乾燥剤に埋めて乾燥させる乾燥工程と、この乾燥工程後に粒状の乾燥剤が付着していない乾燥された花の表面に透明樹脂の皮膜を形成する透明樹脂皮膜形成工程とで乾燥花の製造方法を構成している。【選択図】 図1
