Camomile lawns revisited
Thanks to all respondents, and yeah, LaPuce, camoumile may be cute :-), but
it's wrong, and I stand corrected. On the other hand, since you have camouflaged your shed with it, it could be regarded as a portmanteau, arf arf. But to business: Treneague is easy to propagate - ten plants given some room will multiply x4 or x5 over a season. I've planted my path over the past three years at about 15cm spacings and it's thickening up nicely. Weeding is a big job, but pleasantly scented, and setting aside a wee nursery bed for cuttings and thinnings keeps up a supply of new plants for patching and extending. It's not an easy option, but it's a thrill trampling it in bare feet, and guests can't resist it. Some have even wanted to roll about in it, which makes me think my next project should be a double bed! Felicitations. |

Portmanteau hey, very good ) Saw a fantastic 'rug' under a table with chair entirely made of camomile at Tatton Park. Superb - you'd just love it. It was tight and green and smelling devine. Looks like you're a master in your craft now. Beginner you?! Pah! |
