CHAMOMILE – MATRICARA CHAMOMILLA- PICTORIAL PACKET

German Chamomile is a pleasantly sweet scented native annual herb with small, white, highly aromatic, Daisy-like flowers. These are traditional dried and have been used in numerous treatments from toothache to hemorrhoids for centuries.  Unlike its similar (Roman) cousin this is a taller plant reaching 24-30? with fern-like light green and feathery whereas Roman chamomile has finely divided parsley-like leaves that are thicker and flatter than German chamomile. German chamomile does well in poor, clay soil whereas its close cousin, the Roman chamomile prefers well-drained and moderately fertile soil. Although both chamomiles thrive in open, sunny locations, German chamomile is best in hot, drier locations . It will also grow in lightly-shaded areas.

This seed is supplied in premium pictorial packets direct from Italy.
