Chamomile 'Bona'

  • Product number: 347505
  • Origin: Slovakia
  • Latin: Matricaria chamomilla

While true chamomile can tend to grow rather untidily and irregularly, 'Bona' excels with exemplary, compact, and remarkably uniform growth (height approx. 40-50 cm). The sturdy plants bear an abundance of large, well-filled flower heads with the characteristic golden-yellow centres and milky-white ray florets.

‘Bona’ contains an exceptionally high content of essential oils. As soon as you pick and dry the flowers, an intense honey-sweet and deeply spicy aroma is released that easily puts the common wild variety to shade. Ideal for anyone who wants to make their own medicinal, deeply soothing chamomile tea. A delight for tea lovers and an absolute top attraction for beneficial pollinators and bees in the garden!
