Plants have been used as a primary source of natural dyes in food production, woven fabrics and textiles, and even cosmetics and beauty substances since ancient times. Telang flowers produce blue hue, turmeric produces yellow colour, and roselles’ natural colour is red. Primary colours such as red, blue, and yellow cannot be created by mixing with other colours, however, secondary and subsequent colours can be created by mixing together a few of the primary colours.
