Best Answer

Indigo can be extracted from certain plants such as the Indigofera species. It can also be extracted from woad (Isatis tinctoria) and dyer's knotweed(Polygonum tinctorum), and can be obtained from the sea creatures known as Phoenician Sea Snails. However, most indigo dyes are now made synthetically.
