GERMAN CHAMOMILE
Matricaria Recutica, syn M.Chamomilla also known as Blue Chamomile, Hungarian Chamomile, Wild Chamomile. The word Chamomile came from Greek Chamailmelon meaning “Earth People”. The German Chamomile is an erect herb with a branching stem that can grow up to 24 inches tall. It is native of Europe and Northwest Asia. Now also grown in North America. Europeans in the middle age used it as a strewing on the floor to combat pests and odor.
Chamomile bloom from the last of April to last of May about 8 weeks after the seed has been sown. German Chamomile oil is steam distilled with the dried flowers of chamomile. However buying an extra grade flower assorted by hand are almost three times higher in price so for this purpose only the lower grade flowers with their stacks are used. As well as, dust of the flowers are also used but dust cannot be easily distilled with direct steam because it has the tendency to bake. In order to stop this, dust is first thoroughly mixed with straw to distilled better with flower and stacks.
