    I started a tea garden this year & planted chamomile, mint, spearmint, lavender, peppermint, sage, basil & rosmary. I don't ever want to have to buy tea again in the stores. I have a cup of chamomile every night before bed.
    Thanks for the video!

    Drying extra herbs is also a great way to use them all. I even hang them in my barn and add last years to the chicken bedding keeps the barn smelling a little better.

      From Lil Giant Chamomile, in a lot of water, is great for colic in babies. The color should be very light because it is so watered down. Soothes the cramping, etc.

    German chamomile is an annual plant that grows 6 to 26 inches tall has white flowers and starts to bloom when days reach 17hours long. Start inside between march and may and plant out after 8 weeks of growing inside. harvest july on and let selfseed for next year or repeat the process every year.
