I'm no longer on fb so have lost track of that group (and this thread for 7 years apparently 🙃)
My woad has finally 'naturalized' though...many plants live for more than their biannual life cycle and I am finding more volunteers from seed!
Have not done any dyeing with it since my initial experiment but we use the leaves for a tea....brewed along with red clover as Buhner recommends, starting in cold water, slowly brought to a few minute simmer. Both Buhner and Michael Moore recommend that method for those particular herbs to bring out their particular medicinal properties.
Have you established your woad patch?
Any success dying with it?
