Bay Leaves
 

Had an email from someone who would like some Lily of the Valley and asked
if I can send some Bay Leaves as well. They saw my posting that we have
hedges of Bay which we cut back and also Bay Trees growing almost like
weeds.

Question. Do I need to pick and dry? If so how? If I just pick and send,
will they 'sweat' and start to rot in the post? Should I pick a stem full of
leaves? Advice please

Mike

Freshly picked bay leaves will last for at least a week in a dry
packet like an envelope or a cardboard box.

Thanks Steve. A lot of leaves in 100 gr in an A5 envelope and as long as
they are flat, a 2nd class stamp. Have to experiment ;-)
