LANDSCAPE VALUES:
This ancient European herb remains a popular and useful plant in gardens today. The single-flowered Roman Chamomile has been considered the most potent medicinal form since the 13th century. It was grown in American gardens by the 1600's and Thomas Jefferson listed Chamomile as a kitchen garden herb in 1794. This aromatic, perennial ground cover tolerates light foot traffic. Low-growing, spreading, with creeping rhizomes. Has similar uses for teas and medicine as annual chamomile varieties, but produces fewer blossoms.
