About Oldenlandia Umbellata
Oldenlandia umbellata is a low-growing plant native to India. A colour-fast red dye can be extracted from the root bark of a two-year-old plant. Chay root dye was once used with a mordant to impart a red colour to fabrics such as calico, wool, and silk. It is grown on the Coromandel Coast in India.
