Roman chamomile can be difficult to cultivate because of its sensitivity to weather
fluctuations. The consistently high rainfall in the Pacific Northwest and some parts of
England—along with a relatively consistent climate—make these areas ideal for growing
Roman chamomile. BOGO 1 Roman Chamomile
Roman chamomile flowers resemble daisies, with a prominent yellow center, white petals,
and gray-green leaves. Some say the flowers smell like apples. The plant grows close to
the ground, only reaching about a foot in height. Roman Chamomile essential oil is steam-
distilled from the flowers, which should be harvested shortly after blooming.
Why Roman Chamomile?
Isoamyl tiglate—one of the main chemical components in Roman Chamomile essential
oil—provides a relaxing aroma in times of need. Another key chemical constituent of Roman
Chamomile is isobutyl angelate, which cultivates a calming environment.
Tip:
Cuppa with Chamomile

Chamomile essential oil to hot water, along with a small spoonful of honey and
any other desired ingredients.
