Chamomile - Anthemis tinctoria

Chamomile (Anthemis tinctoria) offers one of nature’s purest yellows—soft, bright, and beautifully balanced. These dried flower heads create radiant golden tones that add cheer and lightness to your fabric projects. Simple to use and entirely natural, Chamomile remains a staple in every dyer’s collection.

Benefits

Chamomile is beloved for its gentle, happy colour and excellent performance on natural fibres. It gives fabrics a clean, sunlit tone without overpowering, making it perfect for delicate projects or as a base for blends. Easy, reliable, and timeless.
