    HOW TO GROW GERMAN CHAMOMILE FROM HERB SEED

    After danger of frost, sow Chamomile seeds in prepared soil that is well-drained, neutral to sightly acidic. Barely cover herb seeds (they need light to germinate). For areas with a shorter growing season, start Chamomile seeds indoors 6 weeks before last frost. When plants reach height of approximately 2 inches and have begun to display their first true leaves, they are ready for transplanting into light, well-drained soil in sun.

    First harvest can be done when plants are in full bloom, approximately two months from sowing. Tiny white flowers can easily be cut from plant. Chamomile will generate new blooms for repeated harvests. Spread the flowers to dry on a cloth or screen in the sun. Remove leaf and stem pieces. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place. German Chamomile is a liberal self-sower, dropping its own seeds for next year's garden.

    Usage: medicinal (for digestive disorders, dyspepsia, anorexia), has an antispasmodic and sedative effect.
