hi i was of the impression that the chamomile grown to produce a lawn doesn't flower so as such doesnot have seeds, they are all grown from cuttings. a couple years ago i successfully grew some a meter square using the 40 plug plant tray from http://www.uk-herbs.com/product_info.php?products_id=346 (http://www.uk-herbs.com/product_info.php?products_id=346) but that winter for whatever strange reason they got flooded and so the plants died out the area has been re dug and had gravel incorporated into it to prevent water logging but i have not got round to buying the plants plan to do so next spring.

Nicky's Nursery (http://www.nickys-nursery.co.uk/seeds/pages/herb.htm#FS-AN010S) sell flowering 'chamomile lawn' seed, however as thifasmom (thanks for the link to uk-herbs. :D ) says the non-flowering variety is propagated via cuttings.
