Chamomile - Roman Herb Seed

Roman Chamomile Herb Seed

An evergreen carpet of fragrant green! This the species grown for the famous British "chamomile lawns"! If you have ever dreamed about growing a chamomile lawn, this is the variety to try! Just like German chamomile, Roman chamomile (Anthemis nobilis) flowers are used in herbal teas. More often, though, Roman chamomile is used as an unusual, aromatic groundcover because it can be grown from herb seed.

This evergreen perennial forms a thick, 6 inch mat of sweetly scented, finely-cut, bright green leaves. Single stalks topped with tiny white and yellow daisy-like flowers appear in middle summer.

Season: Perennial
Height: 6 - 12 inches
Bloom Color: White/Near White
Bloom Season: Late Spring to Late Summer
Environment: Sun to Partial Shade - Moist, but Well Drained
Zones: 4 - 9
Seeding Rate: Approximately 5,000 seeds covers 100 square feet.

Sow roman chamomile herb seeds in fall or spring in well-drained, neutral to sightly acid soil. After danger of frost, sow seeds in open ground well exposed. Barely cover seed (they need light to germinate). When plants are 2" tall, thin or transplant plants to 4 inches apart in light well-drained soil in sun to create a lawn effect. Plants may deteriorate in very cold or wet winters, but will most likely recover. Harvest flowers when first fully opened, and use fresh or freeze. Allow 7 - 10 days to germinate.

Roman Chamomile Bottle

Seeded Soil

We are now offering shaker bottles filled with seeds and lime mixed together. Simply take off the lid and shake your way to a beautiful new groundcover! Lime improves the pH of acidic soils, adds valuable micronutrients to soil, and helps break down organic matter. In addition, lime is white so it is easy to tell where you have spread the seed. Just sprinkle the mixture over good quality soil, and then gently water to keep seed moist until it sprouts!
