'''Nili''' has a very long history of use as a dye. Because of its fascinating deep blue colour, Its great colour fastness to light and the wide range of colours obtained by combining it with other natural dyes, it has been called 'the king of dyes' and no other dye plants have had such a prominent place in as many civilizations as this genus.
