	Gardening news & reviews from Crocus (The UKs bigest online garden center)
		Camomile lawns are the height of chic in top gardening circles, so it may surprise you to know that they actually pre-date lawns of neatly clipped fine grasses.
		Camomile is a low-growing aromatic herb which is tough enough to be walked on occasionally, so it's ideal for creating an unusual and attractive lawn provided you can offer exactly the right conditions.
		Alternatively, plant up a 'camomile seat' so that the delicate aromas of the camomile are released each time the seat is used.

	Camomile
		The ("German") Camomile is a very valuable and long known medical annual, which even back in the Ancient times was grown and used by the Romans and Greeks.
		One should be careful not to mistake the Camomile for the near related non-aromatic Matricaria perforata, which grows on the same biotopic conditions.
		The plant has essential oils, with the blue oil chamazulen, which is the main active substance; it appears when distilling from water or taking the flower baskets into boiling water.

		For a series that features ample nudity, sexual indiscretions, and surprisingly frank treatments of alcoholism, adultery, and rape, The Camomile Lawn remains entirely respectable in the way it weaves passion and pain into a cohesive, engrossing drama, rich in humor and humanity while discreetly handling less savory aspects of its characters' behavior.
		The imminence of war charges the air as they frolic on the fragrant lawn and tempt fate on the terrifying cliffs that one last sultry summer.
		Calypso, Ehle's character in "Camomile Lawn", was her screen (albeit small screen) debut.

		Adapted from the novel by Mary Wesley, The Camomile Lawn proved one of Channel Four's most successful dramas, telling an intricate story set during World War II and over two days in 1984.
		In this portrait of the Home Front in Cornwall and London in the Blitz, the titular lawn becomes a symbol for halcyon pre-war days, and also for a lost innocence on a personal level.
		The story revolves around a group of teenage cousins who spend summer at their aunt (Felicity Kendal) and uncles (Paul Eddington) house in Cornwall, where there is the Camomile Lawn.

		Rather, `The Camomile Lawn' is an intensely-flavored story of lives lived intensely at the point where fear and frivolity meet.
		The casting of `The Camomile Lawn' is as notable for its quirks as its star quality.
		`The Camomile Lawn' gave me a sense of time and place like few other wartime dramas, through a collection of anecdotes and observations as bizarre as an encounter with a herd of llamas in the English countryside, and as simple as the first air-raid warning after war was declared when everyone rushed outside.

		Immensely popular when originally broadcast on Britain's Channel Four in 1992, The Camomile Lawn offers ample proof that British TV drama rises well above American TV in terms of sophistication, maturity, and literary influence.
		You can tell Clint Eastwood is getting old by all of the "retired" characters he plays who are pressed back into service, as in this early '80s effort.
		Unfortunately, he's no Rumpelstiltskin--his powers only go so far--and there's too much straw for him to spin it all into gold; indeed, he gets buried, despite an energetic performance, in a limp plot about the search for a kidnapped princess.

		It is August, 1939, and while war looms, they are very much aware they may never meet again like this, all together, on their aunt's sweet-smelling camomile lawn.
		"The Camomile Lawn" is a well written, intricate soap opera, of sorts, which illustrates how the uncertainty of war and the heightened sense of one's mortality allow for unconventional behavior and impact the social mores of the times...sort of a "live each day as if it were the last" philosophy.
		The novel then follows the changing fortunes of these five, of their Uncle Richard and Aunt Helena, of Max and Monika, an Austrian Jewish refugee couple, of the local Rector and his wife and of their twin sons, through the war.
