Botanical Identity
Roman chamomile belongs to the Asteraceae family. Its accepted botanical name is Chamaemelum nobile (L.) All. The botanical synonym Anthemis nobilis L. is also used in trade and technical references.
Common and commercial names include Roman chamomile, Roman camomile and English chamomile. These names identify the botanical product and do not establish the geographical origin of the supplied batch.
In ACPFOOD’s product range, this material is also identified by the Persian commercial name Babuneh Shirazi (بابونه شیرازی). Because regional common names can overlap, purchasing specifications should include the botanical name and product code FLO-058.
The commercial flowers are flower heads containing numerous small florets. This page covers dried Roman chamomile flower heads rather than whole leafy flowering tops.
Roman chamomile and German chamomile, Matricaria chamomilla, are separate species. Their specifications and analytical profiles should not be treated as interchangeable.
For botanical reference, see Kew’s Plants of the World Online.
Product Form and Physical Characteristics
This product is supplied as dried Roman chamomile flower heads and floral fragments. Flower-head size, shape, fullness, colour and fragmentation may vary according to the selected material and preparation.
The proportions of intact heads, detached floral parts and small stems should be assessed against a representative sample.
Please specify your requirements for:
- Flower-head size and general appearance
- Intact and broken flower-head proportions
- Detached floral material and fine particles
- Colour and characteristic aroma
- Stem, leaf and other non-floral content
- Moisture content
- Foreign matter and damaged material
- Any additional sorting, cleaning or sieving requirements
The selected sample and agreed specification define the material supplied. Any requirement for a particular flower form should be stated before ordering.
Whole flower heads, cut material and powder require different physical specifications and should be discussed separately. Drying method, microbial-reduction treatment and additional processing should be confirmed where relevant to the intended application.
Applications
Dried Roman chamomile flowers may be evaluated as botanical raw material for:
- Herbal infusion and tea blending
- Botanical extraction
- Aromatic botanical preparations
- Manufacture of botanical ingredients for cosmetic formulations
Suitability depends on the selected batch, intended application, preparation method and destination-market requirements.
Buyers should evaluate aroma, flavour where relevant, flower condition and processing performance before establishing production parameters.
Food and infusion applications require appropriate microbiological specifications and processing controls. Cosmetic applications require a suitable formulation and assessment of the resulting ingredient.
Dried flower heads should not be assigned the same composition, concentration or specifications as finished Roman chamomile essential oil or a standardized extract.
