Dyer's Plumeless sawwort
This is a guess - the Danish name I have found is engskær, not engblad.
But you can perhaps ask your client, or it may give you a clue you can continue your search with.

: Det engelske navn kunne også antyde, at planten har været brugt til farvefremstilling.

Også den latinske og bogen, jeg har om plantefarvning - planten skulle hentes fra Sverige, men farveægtheden var bedre end planter, der voksede/vokser i Danmark

Globe Flower
Hej - jeg kan slet ikke google Engblad - og har heller aldrig hørt navnet.
Kunne det være Engblomme eller Engkabbeleje?
Latin: Trollius Europaeus (medlem af Ranunculaceae - Ranunkelfamilien - Ranunculales på engelsk.
Kaldet Globe-flower.
