Has anyone tried drying rose petals for pot-pourri, if so, what method
worked for you?
I've got some lovely scented roses and don't want the petals to go to
waste.
I tried putting some in the oven on a low heat but they went a bit brown
and
the smell seems less strong.

I have a dehydrator and it works fine. Perhaps you had your oven too high.
For dehydrating try the oven but on the lowest heat with the door slightly
propped open. I suspect you are drying them too quickly
