It’s going to be a scorcher day! Out in the garden by 6:30 to harvest the beautiful Dyer’s Coreopsis flowers. Then it was time to w**d and water the flower beds. I really love this time of the day! Nature waking up with the sun!

Are you looking for a rich, sunny yellow? Dyer’s Chamomile (Cota tinctoria) is grown organically in my dye garden in Roanoke, VA. Limited supply! Available

Dried flowers, sold by the ounce!
Also known as Golden Marguerite, Dyer’s Chamomile has been used for centuries throughout Europe and Central Asia as a stable yellow dye. It works very well on protein fibers (wool and silk) for the richest color, but can also be used on cellulose.

Use at 50% WOG (weight of goods) for a medium-to-strong yellow. This sunshine yellow is very lightfast.
Requires a mordant.
Dip the dyed goods into an iron bath for olive greens. Overdye with Madder for tangerine, and Indigo for deep greens.

I love my job💛I will admit being a one- woman small business does have its days, but not today! The 2 beds of Dyer’s Chamomile gave up an abundance of flowers! I get to be outdoors, listen to the many birds singing away and enjoy nature’s bounty! And anticipate the beautiful color these flowers will produce!
