Herb Spotlight: Chamomile
If I could recommend just one herb for a new gardener to grow, chamomile would be near the top of the list. It's easygoing, beautiful, and rewards you with handfuls of flowers that can be turned into homemade tea. There's something satisfying about stepping into the garden, gathering a few blooms, and knowing that what ends up in your teacup started as a tiny seed just a few months earlier.
