Natural Dye Seed Collection

Description

Start your own dye garden! This set includes the seeds of 6 different plants used for natural dyeing: Rudbeckia, Dyer’s Coreopsis, Hopi Red Dye Amaranth, Japanese Indigo, Dyer’s Chamomile and Woad. All were grown in my own suburban Minnesota garden with no pesticides or herbicides and hand picked and sorted. I can’t WAIT to share my love of gardening and natural dye with you! Read below for more details, but important note – if you live in certain parts of the country I will be unable to send Woad and will substitute with an extra and equal value portion of Japanese Indigo. **These seeds were harvested in 2023 for 2024 season planting**

Dyer’s Chamomile: (Golden Marguerite, Cota tinctoria or Anthemis tinctoria). The flowers provide a bright, strong, light-fast yellow natural dye.

Dyer’s Coreopsis: A North American native, Dyer’s Coreopsis is a gorgeous, bee-attracting summer bloom that also gives you a bright orange to red-brown in the dye pot.

Hopi Red Dye Amaranth: A gorgeous annual 4 to 6 feet tall with long, draping flower heads, this amaranth is a stunner in the garden and has so many uses.

Japanese Indigo: An easy to grow member of the knotweed family, Japanese Indigo is a great option for those looking for a natural blue dye.

Woad: Used to make blue dye since ancient times, woad has tinted fibers for the ancient Egyptians, the Vikings, and now for you.

Gloriosa Daisy: (Black-eyed Susan, Rudbeckia hirta). The flowers provide a yellow to green natural dye and are a beautiful garden addition.

I test samples of all of my seeds to ensure viability but cannot guarantee growth due to handling and specific conditions. If your seeds don’t grow please contact me and we’ll troubleshoot!

IMPORTANT: Woad can be invasive in certain areas and is considered a “noxious weed” in certain US states. Because of this, I cannot ship to the following states: California, Utah, Washington, Wyoming, Oregon, Nevada, Montana, Idaho, Arizona, Colorado, or New Mexico. See https://plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=ISTI for more information. If you live in one of these areas I will substitute Japanese Indigo. International shipping is not available.
