Chamomile - or Camomile - is the popular name for a group of daisy-like flowers which originated in Europe and Asia. They are most closely associated with being the key ingredient in a tea which is said to promote restful sleep and ease stress in people. Similarly, the flower can be made into a supplement which is said to have the ability to relax and calm horses under stress.

Chamomile is part of the Asteraceae plant family, which also includes the chrysanthemum and ragweed. The name ‘Chamomile’ originally comes from a Greek phrase which means ‘ground apple’. Chamomile does indeed have a taste and scent reminiscent of apples.
