CHAMOMILE OIL

Chamomile grows close to the ground, has gray-green leaves, flowers that resemble a daisy, and smells like apple. Chamomile has been used as an herbal remedy since ancient times. The word “chamomile” is derived from the Greek words “khamai,” meaning on the ground, and “melon,” meaning apple — likely because of its distinct fruity aroma. Roman Chamomile is a low-growing plant with parsley-like leaves and daisy-like flowers.
