Japanese Indigo
Grow your very own blue! With Japanese indigo, you can dye natural fibers rich shades of blue. This type of indigo was used for a long time in Japan and other Asian countries, but it also grows quite easily in Quebec where we can get two harvests per year. Blooms in white or pink, depending on the individual plant.
