Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile) is a classic perennial herb cherished for its daisy-like flowers, soothing fragrance, and traditional role in calming teas. Known as a gentle remedy for stress, anxiety, and digestive upsets, it has been treasured for centuries as both a medicinal ally and a fragrant ornamental. Its low-growing, mat-forming habit makes it ideal for groundcover, edging paths, or even creating aromatic lawns.
