It is easy to grow from seed as i usually have some that self seed. I grow german chamomile and have saved the flowers, in order to make tea, and have yet to try it! :) it's a great flower too, so I keep it around.

I have tons of German Chamomile to share with anyone - anytime you are in the Portland area. The flowers and leaves are nicer than other varieties, IMO.

Just call me before dropping by: 503-289-8961 - when in NE near MLK/Dekum. It's a great plant, hardy, works in shade, pots, or sun. The Doris Day of my garden, perhaps. Blooms for MONTHS, returns after cutting back, and is a natural re-seeder. Easy to identify and yank (or move) any you don't want. All in all, an under-rated, great plant, IMO.

I'd appreciate tips on how to cook with any part of the palnt, and specific instructions on making tea...dry or fresh & which parts? Does anyone use the plant in soups or salads?

Since it has chosen my garden - wouldn't be cool if it was the tasty anti-allergy, anti-aging antidote of my dreams? (Heck, I'd settle for an approximation of HOPS for Brewing. Might try it!)

From stuff I've read on the 'net, it's easy to make into tea. And if you drink it, you will stay 18 forever!!
