Thank you for your interest in herb plants from MeadowSweet Herbs & Flowers. I've closed order processing for autumn and winter, and will re-open the plant sales on 12 August 2024. I wish everyone a restful cold season and will see you back here for more herb offerings in spring!
An EVERGREEN PERENNIAL growing to 20cm. Similar looking, but lower growing than German chamomile, Roman chamomile has bipinnate, finely dissected fragrant leaves and solitary terminal flowerheads. Prefers growing in well-drained soil and can grow in nutritionally poor soil. It can grow in either full sun or semi-shade and is somewhat drought tolerant when established.
Used similarly to German or annual chamomile, the young sprigs and flowers are edible
