I almost have a few skeins of yarn spun up and then I will cut the woad and over dye it with goldenrod. Love the green I get. The leaves of my japanese indigo turned blue that I dried ,so it is ready too. Still no roving from the mill. And I'm running out of undyed fiber. Just dyed some fiber with cochineal( alum,cream of tartar, and tin one pot mordant).Posted it on my stash page on ravelry. A light raspberry. Love the blues you got.Tarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815092852995853872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-73132928812124871892012-08-26T09:09:41.464+03:002012-08-26T09:09:41.464+03:00Hi Helen, thank you.
There are lot of different sp...Hi Helen, thank you.<br />There are lot of different species of goldenrods, and a lot of different garden cultivars of goldenrod bred by crossing different species. I too thought that all flower the same time, but there are differences in the flower time as well as in height and how fast they spread, some don't spread hardly at all.<br /> <br />I have gotten all my goldenrods in plant swaps or from friends, so unfortunately I don't know the names of them, but by coincidence they all flower in different times, even though they are planted side by side. I suspect one of them might be a cultivar called 'Goldkind'(also called 'Golden Baby'), it is short and doesn't spread. There is a goldenrod species called Solidago juncea, which is said to be the earliest and it has been used when breeding garden goldenrods, I suspect the earliest on in my garden has it in the parentage, but I don't know the cultivar name.<br />The latest of my goldenrods is very tall and late, and I think it is Solidago gigantea.<br /><br />All of my goldenrods give the same good yellow color, so it seems it doesn't matter what cultivar or species you have, but I like that I have plants flowering in the different times, it makes it easier to harvest them when I don't have to do it all at the same time.Leenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266878515009058403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-51390104222125514142012-08-26T01:33:07.604+03:002012-08-26T01:33:07.604+03:00Hi leena

Could you tell me more? <br /> I too have found that the Woad and indeed the Japansese Indigo seemed to have enjoyed the rain and are doing very well.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05597640040480685246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-68384373813015983182012-08-25T21:15:38.771+03:002012-08-25T21:15:38.771+03:00Ai niin Saila, kohtahan alkaa asteriaika:)Ai niin Saila, kohtahan alkaa asteriaika:)Leenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266878515009058403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-8234772034163659262012-08-25T21:07:34.275+03:002012-08-25T21:07:34.275+03:00Terveisiä karvakuonolaan:)

Vähän säälittää leikata piiskut, mutta pakko on, jos meinaa värjätä niillä.Leenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266878515009058403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-8171889310191375032012-08-25T20:55:27.917+03:002012-08-25T20:55:27.917+03:00Kyllä tuo morsinkoväri on sitten kaunis, ehkä kaik...Kyllä tuo morsinkoväri on sitten kaunis, ehkä kaikista kasviväreistä kaunein. Kiva, pitää katsoa jos pääsen parin viikon päästä kaupunkiin, olisi kiva taas käydä tekemässä vähän hankintoja.<br />Upeasti vielä kukkia sinulla! Omiinkin tarhapiiskuihin olen varsin tyytyväinen, mutta toisaalla puutarhassa ei tunnu enää olevan mitään väriä.Sailahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424130517694807680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-55446023497549624292012-08-25T20:31:50.327+03:002012-08-25T20:31:50.327+03:00Hienoja värejä :) ja kaikenlaisia tieteellisiä tes...Hienoja värejä :) ja kaikenlaisia tieteellisiä testauksia.
