so i hung up some milkweed leaves to dry, i started with 4 but the first one i grabbed fell apart in my hand, so here’s the other 3 leaves

and then i crushed and rolled them up in my hands, and picked out the stems and midribs

the question is - are all the nutrients still in the leaves ?
so now i’m trying some more milkweed leaves and day lily flowers, and i put one day lily in a book
