Verbena
This time I used aluminum acetate mordant.
For some of the leaves I dipped in iron but patted them dry.
I am experimenting with whatever I can think of.
I have figured out a way to keep the bundle in the pot
with the lid on which keeps the water boiling
and the steam stays inside.
Steamed for one hour, probably too long for flowers.

The penstemon in particular came out well.
