Indigo was in popular demand in Italy, France and Britain as a dye by the 13th century. However, due to its high price, attempts were made to replace it by another plant woad which was grown in Italy France, Britain, etc.
Also, the plant woad, which was grown in other countries, which they were replacing with Indian Indigo was of dull colour. The dull and pale colour of woad once again increased the demand for Indian Indigo.
