Woad is native to the steppe and desert zones of the Caucasus, Central Asia to eastern Siberia and Western Asia but is now also found in south eastern and some parts of Central Europe. Long important as a source of blue dye, it has been cultivated throughout Europe, especially in Western and southern Europe, since ancient times. In medieval times there were important woad growing regions in England, Germany and France, and towns such as Toulouse became prosperous on the woad trade. Woad was eventually replaced by the stronger indigo and then by synthetic indigos. Woad is somewhat weaker than Indigo but is used the same way to give more subtle and delicate shades of Blue. *** This is not an extract but ground plant matter.
