  • chamomile questions :)

    I bought a bundle of seeds and in there was chamomile, I've sowed it today in a pot but I wonder what to do with it afterwards?

    Should I put it among veg is it a good pollinator attractor?
    Can I use it in food?
    Is there any other uses for it??

    Thanks guys

    The tea is quite nice and is supposed to help you relax and sleep.

          Sorry, RL, but I have to disagree with you, chamomile tea is delicious. It smells and tastes like new-mown hay

          Endless wonder.

            Chamomile tea is an antibacterial so is used for cleaning the eyes during conjunctivitis, it's safe even for newborns
            stay safe, be happy, have fun

              I sowed a chamomile tea bag and presto it has sprouted into plants!
              I am really hoping it is German chamomile as I haven't been able to buy the seeds anywhere.

              Ps I'll let you know what I get if and when the flowers come

                I have it on top of my raspberry planter for tea but also as a groundcover/weed suppressant

                    Cheers I'll take a look
                    Think it's the matriculara type I need
                    I bought roman last time which smells nice but doesn't really give a nice tea.

                        Thanks. Got it bookmarked. I'll be quite chuffed if the tea bag contents come up trumps!
