Beauty And Healing
The plant, known as chamomile, boasts a slender and delicate stem, which contributes to its overall appearance of freshness and lightness.
The chamomile plant presents a striking contrast with its white petals radiating from a brilliant yellow center. Its green leaves possess a soft, velvety texture when touched.
The Chamomile, scientifically referred to as Matricaria recutita originates from Europe.
This flower is widely acknowledged for its distinctive medicinal and cosmetic properties. When the blossoms unfurl, they release a captivating aroma, enhancing their allure.
The name "chamomile" derives from the Greek language, signifying "apple of the earth."
Additionally, its Latin species name, Nobilis, translates to "noble flowers." For numerous years, chamomile has found a prevalent role in shampoos, primarily valued for its capacity to moisturize and enhance the radiance of light-colored hair.
Today, its applications predominantly revolve around cosmetics and perfumes.
Resembling the sun in shape, the small chamomile flower possesses an essence imbued with the vitality of endless life. This unassuming yet noble plant holds potent healing energy.
Methods for Chamomile Care and Treatment:
1. Clean the vase thoroughly and fill it with approximately two-thirds of the water.
2. Trim away excess leaves and eliminate the submerged portions of the leaves.
3. Cut the flower stems at a 45-degree angle, adjusting the length of the cut according to the vase's height.
4. Place the vase in a suitable spot, avoiding direct sunlight, proximity to fruits, and exposure to air vents.
Chamomile thrives in well-hydrated conditions. Upon receiving the plant, consider removing all its leaves and engaging in deep watering. Regularly trim the roots and replace the water each day to ensure the prolonged beauty of your chamomile.
Tips For Chamomile Cultivation :
1. Ensure ample sunlight exposure for chamomile, as it thrives in a sunny environment.
2. Recognize its tolerance to colder temperatures, and position it in a cool setting.
3. Maintain proper ventilation conditions to promote its well-being.
4. Be attentive to its water needs. After inserting chamomile in the vase, prune the leaves and diagonally cut the flower stem's roots by 1-2 centimeters before immersing them in water.
For optimal results, change the water regularly. In spring, summer, and fall, replace the water daily; during winter, this can be extended to every two days.
To further enhance water preservation, consider adding a flower preservative. If unavailable, a small amount of salt or sugar can be substituted. Remember to trim 1-2 centimeters from the old flower roots during each water change.
