Asperula tinctoria, common name dyer's woodruff,[2] is a plant in the family Rubiaceae, a native of much of northern and central Europe from France to Russia and also of Western Siberia.

[1][3][4][5][6] The root was used by the ancient Greeks and Romans to make a red dye for clothing, but was less productive than the more widely used madder Rubia tinctorum.
