Google "oshibana orchids" and you will be happy! Oshibana is the Japanese art of pressing dried flowers and presenting them on paper. Here is a flicker account of some I saw in Hawaii (I did not take the pics): https://www.flickr.com/photos/uhmuse...572677/detail/

Thanks! i'am new in pressing dried flowers (orchids), but I would like to learn more.

I have a comment: I like contre-joure pics of dried flowers. So many details... I like details and things not available to the naked eye....

In English we call a collection of descriptive dried specimens a herbarium. There are herbaria in existence which date back to several centuries ago.
