I picked 3 qt. of blossoms to make one batch of jelly for first time. my question, how do you get just the yellow petals without the green? I cut off the base of the blossom but still had lots of green left behind. my jelly did turn out wonderful but I was afraid the "dandelion water" was so dark and brownish that it would not taste or look good. what is the secret for getting only the yellow petals. thanks so much, my family is excited to try the jelly.
