Description

Charming flowers with a delightful scent – this is the standard, edible chamomile. These plants are petite and adorable in the garden. Snuggle up with a warm mug of chamomile tea, ideal for soothing nerves and promoting sleep. We love the floral aroma and lovely fragrance of chamomile, wonderfully therapeutic and low-maintenance to cultivate. These plants thrive in gardens, raised beds, and even pots!
