Chamomile is a small flowering plant that is native to southern and eastern Europe. It grows to a height of 15cm to 60cm with white daisy like flowers. The flowers, blooming from late spring to early summer, have a pleasant aromatic scent. I pick 10 flowers and place in a tea pot with boiling water for 10 minutes and have each night before bed. I find it helps me to relax and sleep better. As the petals start to fall off the plant, I then harvest and air dry in a brown paper bag for 10 days. The dried chamomile flowers also are great in tea!
