German Chamomile is an annual in Zones 1-13. With a tenacious growth habit, Chamomile should do well in most soils, but it does especially well in light, sandy soils. Sometimes used as a ground cover to fill in gaps in your garden.

German Chamomile will attract beneficial insects like bees and butterflies, and some say that planting Chamomile in your garden has antifungal properties. As an herb, it is most popularly used to create teas.

The flowers are often dried and used to make Chamomile Tea.
