So does anyone grow chamomile ? Can you do anything with it that isn’t tea?

Any help? https://theherbalacademy.com/23-ways-to-use-chamomile/

I don't grow it myself.

Thanks that’s very interesting. Any reason you don’t grow it? Is it a thug?

I thought I had it but it was feverfew which is taking over the garden. Not sure I can cope with another similar plant!!

It does look very similar to feverfew. I really don’t like that stuff Especially the smell!

You can make a nice relaxing lawn out of chamomile to avoid mowing - it only take 6 squillion plants and 3 generations! Wink
