TANSY
tanacetum vulgare
Description
Tansy is a common weed on the hiking trails around our home. It is hardy and drought-resistant and blooms for many weeks.
Experiments
We have experimented with dyeing with tansy on wool on which it produces a lovely earthy yellow. The leaves of tansy in particular also produce a defined and delicate eco-print.
