Easy to grow with outstanding texture, this herb can multi-task in the landscape while providing great scent and a boatload of herbal uses in the home. Tolerating full sun or partial shade, this Chamomile is a low, creeping, yet aggressive growing plant with fine, almost frilly, fragrant foliage. It can create a thick stand and often has been used outside the herb garden as a lawn substitute, but you will find it an easy going, easy growing plant that works well in any herb or container garden. The fine textured foliage serves as a great backdrop for small daisy-like flowers with white rays and yellow center that bloom from early summer through frost. Flowers can be dried and used in soothing, great tasting teas that have a long, detailed history of use as treatment for a wide variety of ailments. Its apple scented foliage can be used in sweet smelling potpourris with ease. Perennial.
