Dyer's reseda plays a central role in the production of yellow dyes and has been one of the most popular dye plants for bright, lightfast yellow tones for centuries.
The main dye luteolin provides long-lasting, stable colors that can also be used in combination with other dyes to produce green tones.
Due to its natural lightfastness and ease of use in natural dyeing, reseda has gained great importance in history and is still a valued agent in ecological textile dyeing today.
It is also mentioned in numerous poems of Romanticism and nature poetry.

No. There is no minimum shelf life requirement for dried plants sold as raw materials for the production of plant-based dyes. When stored in a dry place away from light, they can usually be kept for several years. Storage instructions can be found in the product data sheets.
Our packaging sizes are primarily aimed at individuals. Therefore, we mainly offer small quantities. However, for educational institutions or customers who work with larger groups, it may make sense to order larger quantities. For orders of 1 kg or more per item, we can usually arrange a separate delivery as a complete package. Since we usually have to order these larger units separately and check availability with our suppliers in advance, we recommend a lead time of at least two weeks.
In our online shop, we can only offer you some basic information about our products. If you would like to delve deeper into the world of plant dyes and expand or deepen your knowledge, we recommend our workshops at Hof Emschermündung or at one of the globally active Dialogers.
Many of our products are also available from smaller manufacturers or specialized cultivation projects that are not certified organic. Organic certification involves organizational and financial costs and is therefore not carried out by all producers. We offer products from certified organic cultivation whenever they are available in the desired quality and can be purchased at a fair price. At the same time, we carefully select all our suppliers and pay attention to high product quality and responsible manufacturing, regardless of certification.
Sustainability plays a central role for us. That is why our goal is to source as many of our products as possible regionally and sustainably or from our global sevengardens network partners. However, our capacities at the Emschermündung farm are not sufficient to supply our online shop. Our own production is too small for this, but it covers a very wide range – from pomegranate blossoms to madder roots to maidenhair ferns. Our dye garden is a little paradise for dyers. You can see for yourself in our workshops.
