Sunlight: Will grow happily in full sun to light shade.
Watering: Gentle but regular watering while seeds germinate and establish.
Soil: Chamomile loves a fertile, well-draining soil. Add plenty of organic matter in the form of ActivGrow Soil Improver to garden beds prior to planting, or plant in Organic Potting Mix if growing in containers.
Harvest: Harvest flower heads and collect. Regularly harvesting will promote continued flowering. Spread them out in a warn, dry location and leave for around 2 weeks to dry out. Then store in an airtight container or jar.
