Varied colours of importance were imparted on the substrates. The metal salts displayed their fixative strength on the fabric while the colour on the subtrates shows the coloration potential of the plant part. The fact that this plant is cheap, easily assessed, less toxic, biodegradable and environmentally compatible is of great importance to our community and the society at large. The colour imparted shows that the plant part could be of great value to textile, printing and colouration industries.
