Roman Chamomile
Anthemis nobilis
Roman Chamomile grows close to the ground, reaching only up to a foot in height. It has grey-green leaves, flowers that resemble a daisy, and smells like an apple. The plant has been nicknamed the “plant’s physician” because it has positive effects on plants growing nearby. Ancient Romans used the Roman Chamomile oil for courage during war. While the most common use for Chamomile is in tea, Roman Chamomile can also be found in face creams, hair dyes, shampoos, and perfumes.

Sourcing
Why the US and UK?
Roman Chamomile can be difficult to cultivate because of its sensitivity to fluctuations in weather conditions. The high and regular amount of rainfall per year in the Pacific Northwest and some parts of England – along with a relatively consistent climate – make these areas ideal growing environments for Roman Chamomile.
How Does it Work?
The flowers of Roman Chamomile resemble daisies, with their prominent yellow-centre white petals, and grey-green leaves. Some say that the Roman Chamomile flowers smell similar to apples. The plant grows close to the ground, only reaching about 30 cm in height. The essential oil is steam distilled from the flowers, which should be harvested for distillation shortly after blooming.
