Description
Carthamus tinctorius L., commonly known as Safflower, is an annual thistle-like plant in the family Asteraceae, cultivated across Asia, the Middle East, and parts of Europe and North America since ancient times. It is one of humanity’s oldest cultivated crops, with records of its use dating back over four thousand years in ancient Egypt, where it was used as a red dye, a food flavoring, and a medicinal herb. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, safflower is classified as a blood-activating herb used to promote circulation, dispel blood stasis, and relieve pain associated with poor blood flow. The dried flower petals (Hong Hua in Chinese) are the primary medicinal part of the plant, while the seeds are a major source of safflower oil used in both culinary and cosmetic applications.
