Woad Seed Pack/Indigo Dye

A historic dye plant treasured as a source of indigo blue for over 2000 years. Revered for both its dye components and its medicinal properties—treating wounds, reducing fevers, and soothing ulcers. This hardy biennial thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, producing lush, green leaves rich in natural indican. Harvest the leaves in the first year for dyeing.

Regulatory Note:
While woad is a rewarding addition to any dye garden, it has the potential to become invasive in certain regions. This plant is listed as a noxious weed in one or more U.S. states. Please check with your local agricultural extension office before growing under conditions that could lead to dissemination. To practice good stewardship, harvest leaves regularly to prevent flowering and seed dispersal, and avoid planting near wild or unmanaged areas.
