Yes that is correct. They simply would not dry properly and would remain soft. The longer they dry the better they are. 
The same items can be kept long after the cake is gone and to do this you simply store them in a closed non-airtight container. Most of my flowers are stored in egg cartons. As long as you keep them dust free they can be used again much later down the line.

When I made my zoo animal cake, I started on them the weekend before. They hold up pretty well!

It's not too early!
Be sure to keep them away from sunlight also to avoid fading!!
