Native to Eurasia and first used by ancient Egyptians, Chamomile
(Matricia chamomilla) has daisy-like flowers and a long and
storied history as a gentle, soothing herb. In traditional
Gernan herbalism, Chamomile was so popular it was called alles
zutrut, meaning "capable of anything". With its pleasing sweet
apple aroma, it has always been one of the world's. In addition,
its fragrance makes Chamomile a pleasant addition to potpurris
and aromatic dried flower arrangements.
Cosmetically,
Chamomile makes a wonderfully soothing bath, a penetrating
facial, and it can be used to bring golden highlights to brown
hair.
