Gardenia Powder Extract

Gardenia Blue Extract Powder is a unique, plant-based dye made from the fruit of the Gardenia jasminoides. It produces soft blue-green tones, rare among botanical dyes, and offers an easy way to introduce cooler hues into your natural palette. This ready-to-use extract eliminates the need for complex indigo vats, giving dyers a simple route to subtle, calming blue-green shades.

Benefits

For dyers who love botanical colour but crave blues without indigo, Gardenia Blue is a perfect fit. Its cool, serene tones pair beautifully with earthy yellows, browns and greys for balanced, contemporary colour stories. Easy to use and consistent, it’s ideal for small studios, educators, or anyone exploring a broader natural colour range.

Ideal Applications

  • Silk scarves, wool yarns, or felted projects.
  • Shibori or resist-dyed pieces requiring cool accents.
  • Mixed palette dye work with marigold, weld or chamomile.
