The plant of the month: chamomiles
Chamomiles, and feverfew have been collected and grown for a long time, for their medicinal properties and as beverage plants. Indeed, but which of them? At least three are important, and they can have simple or double flowers. Botanistes moved them from one genus to the other, which makes identification more difficult. Which one is the "true", teh "Roman", the German" one? Many errors can be found in books. You will find here a small identification key for cultivated chamomiles.
