Chamomile grows the best in places with constant sunshine without shade. The herb loves heat. The optimal temperatures for it are from 20 to 30 degrees, advise the specialists from the team of our Online Catalog Semenata.ORG.

Chamomiles are not picky about soil quality. They need drained and at least slightly fertile soil.
