Madder Root watercolor printed on a silk Scrunchie.
Madder comes from the roots of the Rubia cordifolia L. plant. It has been used since ancient times as a red and orange dye for leather, wool, cotton and silk. The roots contain the dye compounds alizarin and purpurin, which give red and yellow colors. (https://www.dharmatrading.com )
