The '''Woad leaf''' is a blue leaf that is used to make [[blue dye]], and by extension [[green dye]] and [[purple dye]]. Players must take two woad leaves and five [[coins]] to [[Aggie]] to make blue dye; this is enough to dye one item.<br />
<br />
[[Members]] can grow woad leaves at level 25 [[Farming]] by planting a [[woad seed]] in a flower patch. Alternatively, players can buy woad leaves from [[Wyson the gardener]] in [[Falador Park]]. Offering him 20 [[coins]] provides the best value, since he actually gives two for being so generous.<br />
<br />
Woad leaves play a part in ''[[Goblin Diplomacy]]'', since they are required for making dye used on [[goblin mail]] during the quest.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
<br />
In real-life medieval Europe (which ''RuneScape'' takes some inspiration from), woad was indeed used to make blue dye<ref>[http://www.dur.ac.uk/medieval.www/sagaconf/ewing.htm "What do we mean by 'coloured clothing'", Durham University]</ref>. However, blue would have been an expensive colour, and was the "royal" colour of France<ref>[http://www.bucks-retinue.org.uk/content/view/139/177/ Medieval Dyeing, Buckingham's Retinue Reenactment Site]</ref>.<br />
