Chrysanthemum Tincture 1 oz bottle. 
Medicinal Properties
Chrysanthemum has been appreciated and cultivated for its beauty, pleasant flavor, and medicinal properties for over 3,000 years beginning in China. Awareness of its virtues spread across East Asia, and eventually to the West. Its ability to bloom through the autumn and early winter contributes to its reputation as a longevity elixir. You may have seen richly colored "Mums" brightening a garden long after other flowers have faded. 
The species used most often in herbalism are C. morifolium and C. indicum with flowers ranging from white to bright yellow. Each color and species of flower is recognized as having a unique affinity and taste, although they share many qualities. A cup of Chrysanthemum tea can be lightly floral, delicately sweet, with a hint of earthy bitterness, and a smooth, almost buttery quality that is wonderful alone or in blends. 
One thing I love about Chrysanthemum is its combination of both moistening and astringent properties--a rare and valuable partnership in one plant. This is a cooling herb full of fortifying, tissue-protecting nutrients and antimicrobial constituents. In Chinese Medicine it is a mild Yin tonic that clears heat, disperses wind, purifies the blood, calms the liver, brightens the eyes, refreshes the mind, and rejuvenates the body. It has a soothing effect on the nervous system and can gently open the heart. I've heard it described as "imbibing a ray of sunshine". 
Chrysanthemum has traditionally been valued as a longevity tonic for general well-being, with an affinity for the eyes and enhancing visual acuity. It has been used to support cardiovascular health, pairing beautifully with Hawthorne. Additionally, Chrysanthemum has been used for many acute conditions, such as irritated or infected eyes, boils and carbuncles, headaches (similar to its cousin Feverfew), colds and influenza, and other acute viral infections. It is considered to be effective for soothing an inflamed throat, clearing the lungs, and reducing a fever, as well as for digestive bloating and cramping (similar to Chamomile). Currently some healthcare practitioners are exploring its applications for Lyme disease with positive results. Despite its delicate flavor, Chrysanthemum is a powerful herb. There is something very gentle in a cup of Chrysanthemum tea, and yet it feels deeply supportive and healing. And it is a genuine pleasure to drink. 
Cautions and Contraindications
Used appropriately, Chrysanthemum is very safe. It can be contraindicated with blood pressure medication. Use during pregnancy and lactation is not well-researched. There are rare cases of allergic reaction to Chrysanthemum.
