La Plante Matricaria German chamomile
Partie de la plante: Flowering Summit
Origine: France
Native to Eastern Europe and the Middle East, Matricaria, also known as German Chamomile, is now widespread throughout most of Europe, colonizing neglected land and untreated fields. Whether wild or cultivated, Chamomile is harvested in summer, when it is in full bloom. Its name comes from the Greek chamos (because it grows close to the ground) and melos (because its flowers have an apple-like fragrance). The genus name Matricaria comes from the Latin matrix, -icis “1. reproductive, female, 2. matrix” and the suffix -arius, -aria, alluding to the plant’s virtues. Finally, it’s the plant of blond hair!
