Herbarium

[cjay]

Does anyone know how to go about starting an herbarium?

Is it pressed flowers or something similar?

Yes. Put the plants inside newspaper sheets, under a weight (eg. large books). Change papers daily until plants are dried. Glue or tape them on white paper sheets, do not forget to write down when & where it was collected.

Then scan them & send the pictures to BF Id forum :D
