I wonder if "Indigo" is a typo for "Indo", meaning Indonesia?

True yellow carpets are pretty rare. Unfortunately, there is a process used by some exporters to first house anemones in the dark so that they expel their normal pigments. The dealer then soaks the now white anemone in a dye to take on a brighter color. Those anemones often fail to thrive.

Here is an article about true yellow carpets;
