Description
Indigo is a plant with considerable lore. And for good reason. The magic of seeing blue develop out of green leaves does not grow old.
INDIGO
persicaria tinctoria
Experiments
We have experimented with both fresh leaf indigo dyeing which produces lighter blues, and have fermented the leaves to create a powder which we used to create a vat which produces darker blue colours.
