        I think so, they're just the petals aren't they? And I would think that the boiling would finish off any sneaky seeds!

            It does stink when being boiled. Soon improves though!

              Mine only made 3/4 of a demi-john in the finish. Do I top up with water or leave it like that?
              OH says top up - less chance of it going off
              Dad says leave it or the flavour will be impaired.

              What to do?

                Top up. If you are using the recipe I copied to Juicy Gossip, it is intended to be topped up!
                If you didn't use as much sugar as suggested, you might like to dissolve the extra in some water and top up with that.
