• Remarkable Color Palette

Thanks to the pigments present in flowers, leaves, roots, berries, or bark, these plants reveal stunning vegetal colors. The color palette offers bright and vibrant shades, ranging from the vivid red of the lipstick tree, the deep blue of indigo, to the bright yellow of St. John's Wort.

Extraction methods vary from one plant to another. The timing of harvest, the material to be dyed, and the quantity are all factors that can influence the resulting color.

• Uses of Tintorial Plants

These plants are common in gardens because they are chosen for their ornamental value. Some plants and pigments are used in coloring materials such as madder or deadly nightshade, in food colorings like saffron or turmeric, in cosmetic products, and also in vegetal paints.

Tintorial plants abound with riches thanks to their pigments. Choosing them is a natural, healthy, and eco-friendly action.
