===Chamomile=== '''Chamomile''' (''Matricaria chamomilla'') is an annual [[Herbs|herb]] known for its delicate, daisy-like flowers and soothing properties. It is commonly used to make [[herbal tea]]. ==Growing== Chamomile can be grown from seeds, which should be sown directly in the garden after the last frost. Seeds should be barely covered with soil and kept moist until germination. Chamomile prefers well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. ==Plant Size== Chamomile plants typically grow 8-24 inches tall and 6-12 inches wide. ==Harvesting== Chamomile flowers are ready to harvest when they are fully open. Pinch off the flowers at the base, leaving the stems on the plant. Flowers can be used fresh or dried for later use. To dry chamomile, spread the flowers on a screen or drying rack in a warm, well-ventilated area. ==Varieties== There are two main types of chamomile: German Chamomile (''Matricaria chamomilla'') and Roman Chamomile (''Chamaemelum nobile''). German Chamomile is an annual plant, while Roman Chamomile is a perennial. ==Uses== Chamomile flowers are most commonly used to make [[herbal tea]], which is known for its calming and soothing properties. The flowers can also be used as a garnish or added to salads for a mild, apple-like flavor.
