How was indigo introduced to the Carolina colony?

Eliza Lucas Pinckney. Born in the West Indies about 1722, Eliza went to school in England. When she was fifteen, her family moved to Carolina. Her father George Lucas, a British army officer, became a planter. When he was named lieutenant governor of Antigua, a British colony in the Caribbean, Eliza stayed in Carolina to manage the family plantations. In 1740, George Lucas sent his daughter a supple of indigo seeds. Her first crop was killed by the frost. A second was ruined by an overseer. in1744, the year she married Colonel Charles Pickney, Eliza Lucas raised a good crop. She carefully oversaw the harvesting of the plants and the making of the dye.
