INDIGO

A purplish-blue dyeing material extracted from the leaves and stems of the indigo tree, “indigo” significantly receives its name from the resulting deep dark blue colouring. In Africa, the two most widely used indigo plants are Indigofera Arrecta and Lonchocarpus Cyanescens. The first grows in dry areas and results in a blue called ‘savanna blue’ and the second, more common in West Africa, gives off a indigo plant colour known as ‘forest blue’.The leaves collected from these plants are used to prepare the dye, which are used either fresh or dried and are compacted into balls or a paste that are later diluted.
