Plant and grow on in sunny, free-draining conditions. It is ideal in rockeries, planting in paving cracks or alongside pathways to soften edges. An open, sunny site is best for a chamomile lawn. Light dappled shade is acceptable, but if it is grown in more shade, its cover will be quite patchy. A sandy loam is preferred but avoid very dry, stony conditions, as some moisture is necessary and it will not tolerate heavy soils like clay. Space plants 10 - 20cm apart to create a lawn, closer for rapid ground cover.

The plants can be divided easily by digging them up and pulling off pieces with a root, and re-planting the divisions.

Flowering varieties of chamomile varieties bloom in mid to late Summer - but not all varieties flower
