D'oh!
Sorry, I'm a berk.
Somehow misread your post Leebu!
How to avoid the mold...
Get the pan of liquid ingredients (sugar, water, tea, lemon juice or citric acid, yeast nutrient or grape juice, etc) really boiling. Pour that onto the flowers in a bucket that has been sterilised, cover, and wait to cool.
Get some champagne yeast activated, and pitch it in when you're ready. Make sure there's yeast nutrient present and that the yeast is well ready to go.
Basically, it's the method from the 'herb and flower wines' article. I can't swear that it's faultless, but using this method I've never had any batch go wrong;
