Fields, Eu. and N. Asia; run wild in E. U. S.—Very similar in appearance to Anthemis Cotula, but lacks the scales between the central florets and has a different odor. The name chamomile, or sometimes spelled camomile, is applied both in Matricaria and Anthemis.

:The second son of [[Odin]] is Baldr, and good things are to be said of him. He is best, and all praise him; he is so fair of feature, and so bright, that light shines from him. A certain herb is so white that it is likened to Baldr's brow; of all grasses it is whitest, and by it thou mayest judge his fairness, both in hair and in body. He is the wisest of the [[Æsir]], and the fairest-spoken and most gracious; and that quality attends him, that none may gainsay his judgments. He dwells in the place called [[Breidablik]], which is in heaven; in that place may nothing unclean be[.]<ref>[http://www.northvegr.org/lore/prose/033036.php ''Brodeur's translation'' in English.]</ref>
