Hello Alamere, Roman chamomile is evergreen in zones 5 to 8. Western Washington is USDA zone 7 to 8 so your customers would be in. This is an extremely fast germin ator and pretty fast grower as well. I would seed plugs and insert them to the lawn at maybe 6-inch spacing once they are suifficiently sized for transplant, richo

I have soil that is full of clay. Can chamomile thrive as a groundcover?

hi patty, i think so. of course the standard remedy for clay is compost but roman chamomile doesn’t like a rich soil. I would treat the soil with sand instead, or at very least mix the seed with sand and strew on surface. my approach is to try everything and keep what works. richo

Yes! I have clay. Spreads slower, but works.
