Madder
Rubia tinctorum
(Dyer's Madder)

Medicinal Usage

Pliny recommended madder to help support symptoms of jaundice, sciatica and paralysis, noting that he found in some authorities "that jaundice is supported if this shrub is merely looked at while worn as an amulet." In medieval times the roots were used externally for helping support wounds and bruises, and internally for helping support urinary problems, kidney and bladder complaints, constipation and the palsy.

Miscellaneous

A native to the Mediterranean and Middle East, madder was valued in both health and dyeing by the ancient Egyptians, and the Greeks and Romans. The red dye yielded by its roots (traditionally used to colour Turkish fezzes) is referred to in the plant's botanical name Rubia, derived from the Latin for red. A wide range of colours, however, can be obtained from the plant. It was listed by Aelfric.
