Dyer's Coreopsis
  • This variety of the common yellow coreopsis flower (its scientific name is Coreopsis tinctoria) produces a deep yellow shade when used for dyeing without any additional chemicals. Dyer's coreopsis grows wild in many places in North America and is easy to grow at home. You can also use the plants (without the flowers) to create a greenish-brown shade. You will need the same weight of flowers or plants as the weight of the fibers you plan to dye.

Eucalyptus
  • There are many types of eucalyptus, and each provides a different result when dyeing. However, many eucalyptus varieties produce a lovely bright orange on fibers when used for dyeing without additional chemicals. The smell of eucalyptus can be quite strong when it's boiled during the dyeing process, however, so it may be best to work with it outside on a portable hot plate unless you really enjoy its scent. You can also collect some eucalyptus bark, which makes a pale green when used for dyeing. An equal weight of leaves and fiber is needed for dyeing.

What happens if food dye doesn't change a flowers color from white to another color in 24 hours or more and it does not die?

If the food dye does not change the flower's color within 24 hours and the flower remains alive, it is likely that the dye was not able to reach the petals or there was not enough time for the dye to fully permeate the flower. It is possible that the type of flower or the process of dye absorption may affect the outcome.


How do flower absorb color dye?

Flowers absorb color dye through their stems by a process called transpiration. The flowers draw up the colored water through their vascular system, allowing the dye to travel to the petals and change their color. This is often used in experiments and demonstrations to show how plants transport water.


How much time does it take to appear the color put in the cup of the flower?

It can take a few hours to a few days for the color to appear in the water of the flower once dye is added. The time can vary depending on the type of flower and how quickly it absorbs the dye through its stems.

Will table salt set the dye?

No, table salt will not set dye in fabric. It is commonly used in the dyeing process to help the dye adhere to the fabric, but it does not "set" the dye permanently. You may need to use a dye fixative or follow specific instructions for setting your dye.

Does red dye make a flower turn red?

No, red dye does not make a flower turn red. Flowers get their color from pigments produced naturally in their petals. Adding red dye to the water they are placed in may cause the petals to absorb the dye, resulting in a temporary change in color.
