From seed to teacup
Chamomile seeds need light to germinate, so scatter them thinly over the surface of damp coir and press gently without covering them. Keep the growing medium moist but not waterlogged, and place it in a warm, bright position.
Pick fully open flowers and dry them thoroughly before storing or brewing. Anyone with allergies to plants in the daisy family should check suitability before consuming chamomile.
