How do I establish a chamomile lawn?

Q.

I am keen to establish a chamomile lawn. I plan to sow seed in trays soon and plant in August. Any tips for success? Is it reasonably hardy?

A.

  • A light free draining soil is best, apply a layer of garden mix to plant into.
  • Chamomile does not like stony, gravelly or heavy clay soils.
  • It grows well in full sun and part shade.
  • Chamomile does not like to compete with weeds for nutrients and water, make sure all weeds are cleared before planting.
  • Avoid walking on your lawn for about 12 weeks until it is established.
  • Other than keeping the weeds under control it is a pretty low maintenance lawn.
  • Chamomile lawns regular watering so it does not brown off over summer.
  • Chamomile lawns are not hardwearing so if there is going to be some foot traffic in the area add stepping stones.
