Isatis
''Isatis'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae, native to the Mediterranean region east to central Asia. Its genus name, Isatis, derives from the ancient Greek word for the plant, ἰσάτις. The genus includes woad (''Isatis tinctoria''). Due to their extremely variable morphology, the Asian species in particular are difficult to determine; the only reliable diagnostic feature is the ripe fruit. They are (usually) biennial plant, biennial or perennial herbaceous plants, often bluish and hairless or downy hairy with the upright stem branched. Description They are annual, biennial or perennial, branched herbs, usually Glabrousness (botany), glabrous and glaucous except silique. Basal leaves generally elliptic-oblong, sessility (botany), sessile; sessile caulinary, rounded to oval-oblong. The hermaphrodite flowers are fourfold double perianth. The four sepals are ascending to upright. The four yellow to off-white or Lilac (color), lilac-white petals are at ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Woad
''Isatis tinctoria'', also called woad (), dyer's woad, or glastum, is a flowering plant in the family Brassicaceae (the mustard family) with a documented history of use as a blue dye and medicinal plant. Its genus name, Isatis, derives from the ancient Greek word for the plant, ἰσάτις. It is occasionally known as Asp of Jerusalem. Woad is also the name of a blue dye produced from the leaves of the plant. Woad is native to the steppe and desert zones of the Caucasus, Central Asia to Eastern Siberia and Western Asia but is now also found in South-Eastern and Central Europe and western North America. Since ancient times, woad was an important source of blue dye and was cultivated throughout Europe, especially in Western and Southern Europe. In medieval times, there were important woad-growing regions in England, Germany and France. Towns such as Toulouse became prosperous from the woad trade. Woad was eventually replaced by the more colourfast ''Indigofera tinctoria'' a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
