Default Chamomile lawn

Contrary to all the advice not to bother, I want to make a chamomile lawn. I
have a little nursery bed with Treneague plants in it and they are doing
well. The question is what is the best way to take cuttings / divide them
please?

Small piece on Jekka McVicar's site suggests doing it in autumn from
offshoots that have aerial roots:

Good luck with it and I'm sure it will smell wonderful.

I've always fancied an area of clover lawn, myself. Lovely shades of
pink and white, like coconut ice. And it wouldn't go all brown in
hot dry weather like our grass lawn does, however I can't convince Hubby
atm.
