This will look great used as a ground cover in a rock garden, in front of a perennial border, and as an erosion prevention on sloped grounds.

Can also be used on hard to grow areas in the sun garden as they have little water requirements, yet fill in very quickly.  Fast growth rate, but not invasive.

Chamomile, Roman

Chamomile has been taken for centuries as a digestive tonic. It reduces inflammation, stimulates the appetite and aids insomnia. Acts as a diuretic and nerve tonic. Helpful for colitis, diverticulosis, fever, headaches and pain. Good for menstrual cramps. Useful as a mouthwash for minor mouth and gum infections.

This perennial form is also known as Roman chamomile. Excellent groundcover since it grows only 4 to 12 inches in height. The feathery foliage has an apple scent.   Blooms are white, daisy-like flowers with down-turned petals.

Roman chamomile foliage can be chopped and stirred into butter or sour cream that is used to top baked potatoes.
