Chamomile lawn
I am growing a new chamomile lawn from seeds that were sown last autumn and
over-wintered in the greenhouse. The lawn is now growing very well and dense with the plants all about 6" tall. The question is - should I trim it with shears now or leave it alone? I tried to send this to england.rec.gardening - but no response. Does anyone use this newsgroup? Thanks |

Udo,
how many plants did you grow and covering what area?? Link to something I saw when consdiering this: http://www.gardenresources.co.uk/con...momilelawn.htm Growing info states the following: When they start to grow cut them back to 15cm to encourage growth. As a lawn chamomile seldom needs cutting and is beautifully fragrant. Jim -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Are you still wasting your time with spam?...

Thanks Jim, I planted 450 plants over about 5 square metres. They're nearly
a foot tall now, so looks like clippers it is then... "Jim" wrote in message om... Udo, how many plants did you grow and covering what area??
