ABSTRACT Used of synthetic dye in the textile industry produced liquid waste if it is not recycle with properly, it can cause pollution and contamination of water both on the surface and every drop used by humans, disrupting ecosystems and even killing life in aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, an alternative to synthetic dye is neededby using plants as natural dye. Leaves can be used for their color content, leaf bones and leaf surfaces can be used as textile motif called ecoprint. This research purposing to find out the types of plants that can be used as materials for making ecoprint as a substitute for synthetic dye and also to find out the parts of plants that can be used as materialfor making ecoprint. The research method used is descriptive qualitative from literature study and literature references regarding data and information related to research. The results showed there are 30 types of plants that can be used in ecoprint. Thishabitus plants is herbaceous, vines, shrubs, shrubs and trees. From herbaceous habitus found 5 species of plants, 3 species of vine habitus, 7 species of bush habitus, 10 species of shrub habitus and 5 species of tree habitus. The parts of plants that can be used in making ecoprints are the leaves, flowers, stems and roots. The results showed there were 30 species of plants from 21 families that could be used in making ecoprint. The parts of plant can be used in making ecoprintare parts, leaves, flowers, stems and roots, but not all parts of every type of plant can be used in the process of making ecoprint.
