Chamomile Blossoms

I like to grow things that are useful to me and one of those things is Chamomile. It helps me with relaxation and sleep and the smell is heavenly. I make my own teas using a variety of herbal remedies. Another plant that I use nighty is Valerian root which is harvested for the root rather than the petals. Currently I have some Valerian roots growing in the front perennial rock garden and will be digging them up to harvest soon. I first planted them in the spring of 2022 so I am hoping the roots are much larger than the first year
