300 Roman Chamomile seeds

Roman Chamomile has a very long history of use as both an ornamental plant and a medicinal herb. Its plants are low-growing and form a spreading mat of aromatic foliage typically growing three to six inches tall. In England, it is traditionally used as a ground cover and in pathways. The lacy, fern-like foliage releases a fruity scent when bruised as it is walked on. Although it can grow to about six inches in height, you can easily manage it by using a lawnmower and mowing it like grass. The daisy-like flowers have white petals and yellow centers and bloom throughout the summer and into early fall. The flower heads may be dried to make a soothing herbal tea. It is very common in commercial tea blends. Roman Chamomile is similar in appearance and use to German Chamomile except that Roman Chamomile is a perennial and will do well in USDA zones 4 to 10. Once your plants are established, you can propagate more plants by dividing the roots in the fall.
