Malus domestica · Dried Apple Blossoms · Delicate Floral Tea

Dried Apple Flowers (Malus domestica) are a delicate floral botanical, recognised for their naturally soft cream and blush-pink petals and gentle floral character.

Traditionally prepared as a simple botanical infusion, the dried blossoms create a light and delicate apple flower tea that can be enjoyed on its own or blended with complementary flowers and herbs.

Apple blossoms are the spring flowers of the familiar apple tree and have long been appreciated for their beautiful appearance, delicate fragrance and place within culinary and botanical traditions.

At Flowers from my Meadow, our Apple Flowers are kept pure and uncomplicated — carefully packed as a single dried botanical for tea, botanical blending and creative preparations.
