Overview: Chrysanthemums are popular multi-petalled flowers native to Asia and northeastern Europe, but now propagated all over the world. Most species originate from East Asia, and China has the most extensive spectrum of varieties and cultivars.  The word “chrysanthemum” actually comes from the Greek words for gold – chrysos – and flower – anthemom.

Typical Uses: Chrysanthemum is often used to treat cold and flu, headache, blurred vision, red eyes, dizziness, and skin sores. It is typically consumed as a tea, but can also be in decoction, pill or powder forms. [3]
