The dyer’s chamomile is more than just a pretty plant. It tells stories from times past, serves health purposes, and promotes life in our gardens. The dyer's chamomile earned its name for a reason: it has been used for centuries to dye textiles. People in ancient times were aware of its dyeing power and used it to turn fabrics into bright yellow shades. The flowers contain natural dyes which, when combined with various mordants, can produce different shades of yellow. Particularly in times when synthetic dyes were unknown, dyer's chamomile played a significant role in textile production. Besides its role as a dye plant, dyer’s chamomile is also valued for its healing properties. In traditional herbal medicine, it is used to treat digestive issues, menstrual pain, and skin conditions. Its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties make it a valuable ingredient in ointments and teas. The bright yellow flowers of dyer’s chamomile are not only an eye-catcher for us but also attract a variety of insects. Bees, butterflies, and other pollinators are magically drawn to the flowers, creating a lively and healthy garden environment. Additionally, it is a very drought-tolerant perennial, making it ideal for naturalistic gardens or rock gardens. As a long-blooming plant, it also looks great in a vase, bringing colour into your home.
