FREE: Herbal Expedition CHAMOMILE SEEDS

Instructions to brew as a tea included?

Nope, but got this infor for online... Thanks for asking though.. I'll list the info on the pepermint seeds too, cause that is suppose to be good in tea. Chamomile
Your tea is made with the small white and yellow flowers of the chamomile plant, rather than the leaves. There are two kinds of chamomile (German and Roman) and it's the German variety that makes the best tea. Chamomile likes sandy soils and lots of sun, but you'll need to give it plenty of water during the hottest parts of the summer. Though technically an annual, chamomile goes to seed so readily that you will likely see it every year in your garden. You can grow chamomile in containers on a balcony, but it doesn't do well indoors.

TY so much for your response! :O)

Do the flowers need to be dried first to be brewed as a tea?

Here is what I found on the net.HARVESTING NOTES

Harvest flowers of both types for drying and for fresh use when they are fully open,as the flowers lose their flavor once they start to darken.
Snip the flowers off with scissors, then rinse and pat dry. Place flower heads on a rack or mesh screen and set to dry in a warm location. When flowers are completely dry, store in jars in the dark.
Harvest fresh leaves as needed.
CULINARY USES

Use fresh or dried chamomile flowers to brew delectable herbal tea. Deciding which chamomile to use is a matter of personal taste. To make chamomile tea, infuse 15 mL (1 tablespoon) of fresh flowers or 10 mL (2 teaspoons) of dried flowers in 250 mL (1 cup) of boiling water. Steep for 5 to 10 minutes. Strew a few chamomile flowers over a tossed green salad, and season cream sauces, butter, and sour cream by adding small sprigs of either type.
German and Roman chamomile are used commercially to flavor alcoholic beverages, such as Benedictine and vermouth, and confectionery, candy, ice cream, baked goods, desserts, and chewing gum

Thanks for the info,even if I don't win!

So is this a German or Roman variety?

Yes, you can research these on the net. These are perennial, Matricatria recutita. Thanks for asking.
