Safflower Petals Natural Dye, 1 Kg

A warm mound of dried safflower petals, vivid in orange, amber and red. The loose flower pieces have a fine, papery texture, made for a natural dye shelf where colour begins with plants rather than powder.

What you’ll notice in the petals

The colour shifts across the pile, from golden orange to deeper rust-red tips.

The pieces are loose and slender, with a dry, feathery look rather than a ground texture.

The irregular shapes keep the feel botanical and unprocessed in appearance.

The bright floral colour brings an immediate sense of warmth to a craft table or studio space.

Dried flower material

These are dried safflower petals, supplied as flower material rather than a powder. Expect fine, separated petals with a naturally uneven mix of tones and shapes.

Keeping the colour at its best

Store dried botanicals in a cool, dry place, away from moisture. Keep the petals sealed between uses so the loose pieces stay clean and easy to handle.

Plant colour, simply presented

Safflower has long been valued as a colour-giving flower, recognised for its strong orange-red petals. Here, the appeal is very direct: dried floral matter, bright natural colour, and a generous quantity for someone who works carefully with plant-based materials.
