Reseda lutea, also known as the yellow mignonette or wild mignonette, is a fragrant herbaceous plant that has been used for centuries to make a yellow dye called "weld". While it is native to Eurasia and North Africa, it has been introduced to other continents and is now considered a common weed. In Australia, it is even classified as a noxious weed and poses a threat to agricultural crops. Although it was once widely used for its dye-making properties, the related plant Reseda luteola is now more commonly used for this purpose.
