Chamomile & Feverfew are easy to mix up because they both produce a small daisy like flower. But they have very different uses in the garden.
Comment FLOWER and I’ll send you the link to varieties we love growing from @bakercreekseeds
Here’s how we use them in our garden.
Feverfew is an amazing cutting garden flower. It is a perennial here in our growing zone 8 - 9. It produces more and more flowers all through the season. The more that you cut the flowers the more it will bloom. Plus, it is great at self seeding, which means if you leave some flowers on it towards the end of the season, they will go to seed and plant new plants for you!
Chamomile Is not as nice looking of a plant but is awesome to have in your herb garden. Plus, it’s edible, save the bloom heads and allow them to dry and you will be able to have your own garden fresh tea. Our chamomile patch is growing in partial shade, but it’s still doing great. Bella has been cutting the bloom heads off for the last month, they are drying on a tray and going into a jar for her to have a tea all winter long. Plus, chamomile will self seed as well. Once you have one patch going, it will plant itself for you again and again again. The original plant will die but fresh plant babies will grow!
It’s not too late to plant either of these - we put links to the ones we love in our Amazon Favorite Garden Tools! amzn.to/42GQ2YZ
