Legume leguminosae (or papilionaceae) is a tree of the genus Robiniaceae. Also known as acacia, nail locust. It belongs to about 20 species, native to the temperate zone and ** zone of North America. It is introduced in all regions of the world. China was introduced by Japan in 1877 and 1878. In addition to the widespread cultivation of Robinia pseudoacacia, some gardens are planted with Robinia triculus (R.).Hispida) and New Mexico Robinia (Rluxurians)。Since 1949, the cultivation range of Robinia pseudoacacia has rapidly expanded to 27 provinces (municipalities and autonomous regions) at 23° 46° north latitude and 124° 86° east longitude. It is commonly found in the central and eastern parts of the country and is an ornamental tree in the garden and a street tree.
There is no data showing that black locust has a dye effect. My friend was enthusiastic about it, so I have to try it.
Material: Branches and leaves. Water extraction, experimental fabric: cotton, silk.
Although there are not many colors of black locust, it is okay to use it as a dye. It opens up at least one new use for the pruned foliage. Robinia is a common tree in the north, and the dye is relatively easy to obtain and easy to handle.
