This variety is commonly known as "German Chamomile", "Chamomile Matricaria" or "Wild Chamomile".
German chamomile is an emmenagogue, digestive, tonic, antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory and stomachic, but its main attraction is its calming power. It is particularly useful in cases of anxiety or mild depression, or simply to relax and get a good night's sleep.
