INFORMATION:
There are several varieties and countries of origin of Chamomila - sometimes referred to as bachelor buttons because of the shape of the flower heads - but the best quality comes from Egypt. The sandy loam and nutrients from the Nile create perfect growing conditions. Chamomile flowers have a yellow center and white petals - they almost look like a daisy.
Chamomile can be made into a pleasant aromatic tea which is slightly bitter but with a fruity flavor. With the addition of lemongrass, this tea is heavenly. Lemongrass - the plant is effective for easing jet lag, indigestion and headaches.

On its own, Camomile produces a sweetish cup with notes of honey and subtle tones of fruit. Lemongrass, which contains citronella, produces a cup that is fresh and herbal with light touches of bitter lemon and even lighter touches of orange. Together, the cup they produce is a heavenly blend of the two
