How to Grow Direct sow in early spring after last frost, or in fall in mild climates. Press seed onto the soil surface — it needs light to germinate, so don't bury it. Keep evenly moist until sprouted. Harvest flowers when petals are fully open and just beginning to fold back, then air-dry for tea.
Good to Know German chamomile self-seeds freely — once established in a bed, it tends to return on its own year after year.
