600 seeds. Anthemis nobilis. Perennial.

Roman chamomile grows as a ground cover with lacy leaves and aromatic white flowers. The flowers are used to make essential oils. Roman chamomile is stronger and slightly more bitter than German chamomile. I recommend German Chamomile if your intention is to make tea.

Roman chamomile can be trimmed to create a dense, sweet-scented lawn. Some of the most famous chamomile lawns are propagated in England at the Buckingham palace. Zones 4–9.

Height 8 inches. Spacing 4–12 inches.

Sowing Roman Chamomile Seeds:

Sow seeds outdoors in spring or fall on the surface of the soil. Or start indoors and transplant after the last frost date. Full sun to part shade.
