Great to use for children who have trouble sleeping. I just love that the oil is green, makes it more interesting when mixing it with the carrier oil.

Nice Chamomile and less costly than the German. Used as a cheaper alternative to true chamomile but it is actually Ormenis Oil. I have used it for amenorrhoea, colic, colitis, dysmenorrhoea, headache, insomnia, irritability, liver congestion, migraine, sensitive skin, spleen congestion. (Also known as Anthemis mixta, Moroccan Chamomile, Ormenis mixta.) Very reasonably priced and excellent quality.
