Safflower Petals (Carthamus Tinctorius)

Carthamus tinctorius

Benefits

Natural

Even if the colors of the beautiful safflowers can vary from yellow to dark orange, when dried, the petals become red and closely resemble saffron.

Botanically related to lettuce, sunflowers, and daisies, safflowers were originally cultivated for their flowers, which were used for textile dyes, and only later for their oil-rich seeds.
