PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a preserved flower and a dried flower to retain its shape and color without losing shape for not less than one year, to repel a water drop even when attached to a petal and not to cause a crease even when a petal is folded. SOLUTION: This method of processing a natural flower comprises adding a specific fluid having propyl alcohol, diethylene glycol, orthotitanic acid, and triethanolamine as main components to a base having methanol, polyethylene glycol and the like as main components to prepare a substituting fluid, dipping the natural flower in the substituting fluid in several minutes to about 40 hours (suitably adjusted based on the size and the thickness of the natural flower), thereafter taking the natural flower out of the substituting fluid, and drying the natural flower by the conventional method such as a method utilizing far-infrared rays, to complete a preserved flower.
