Unwind at the end of the day with the gentle sweetness and soothing charm of Tea Time™ Chamomile! A must-have for tea enthusiasts and herbal gardens, this classic botanical favorite is prized for its sweet apple aroma and peaceful, relaxing qualities that make it the ultimate bedtime brew. Tea Time™ forms a delicate, airy mound of bright green, feathery foliage topped with an endless succession of charming, daisy-like white flowers with golden-yellow centers. Both the fragrant blossoms and tender leaves carry a delightful, crisp apple flavor and scent. Harvest the flowers fresh or dry them for storing, then steep in hot water to create a soothing, naturally caffeine-free herbal tea that calms the mind and promotes restful sleep.
