Weld
Yellow with all mordants. Weld yields the fastest, brightest yellows known.
European-grown chopped weld on plate; American-grown cut weld at left. Silk dyed with weld, tin mordant. Shibori silk moth and dyework by Cheryl Kolander, Master Natural Dyer.
Weld smells delicious, like honey! and bees love the flowers.

Extract only once, with a 20-minute simmer. Add chalk at the end of the dye process to "bloom" the colour (this makes it brighter and deeper).
