Chamomile= "Camo-meal" as in Chamomile "Camomeal," tea.

Voulez-vous coucher avec moi? Ooh Mocha Chocolata, ya-ya (yeah, yeah) Creole Lady Camomile!!! 😂
Maybe. Or he actually self-taught by reading up in stuff that never played any role in his upbringing. Which would be rather impressive, if you think of it.
@mariacrochet8379 he means the leaves can taste a bit like gasoline if they're too large!🤣 The leaves need to be harvested when they are smaller than a golf ball. They are delicious finely chopped up and tossed through a salad. It's like adding a sprinkle of pepper to the dish. Flower petals can be added as well.. The smaller leaves are lovely chipped &mixed into a potato salad with a bit of fried bacon. Yum!🙏

Chim-mo-mo-lay 😂 Oh my gosh!!!😂😅 Oooh too funny!! I love this guy! 😁 Thank you for the laugh. I am a nurse, and with some medications this is often how I sound when I’m trying to pronounce them. Lol.
It’s pronounced “camo-meal” in America (the French might have a different pronunciation, however)-and, you’re right, it makes a great tea-especially right before bedtime.❤
Chamomile tea can be drank after a satisfying dinner help relax; it also promotes sleep at night; for same relaxing property also helps stomach distress. Taste good as well
British front yards in the 70s where my grandparents lived had a neat rectangular lawn and about 12 to 15 inch boarder all around. Planted a ring of marigolds a ring of allysum and finally on the outer edge lobelia . Every time I see allysum I think of my grandad who has been gone almost 40 years. Thanks for the memory
I'm shocked that mint didn't make this list. I had a little kitchen herb patch as a teen, and my parents were still trying to kill the mints years after I moved out. It's possible the new owners may yet be loving or hating my collection of mint varieties! 😅
Me too. There was mint growing everywhere when I was a child and my mother used to pick it fresh to make tea. I still remember how good the tea from the freshly muddled leaves tasted. Once I learned how to identify it I would surprise her by bringing some home every now and then.
@@Sky-Child I later wished that the wonderful old man who gave me my very first start of mint from his own massive patch in the woods would have warned me! I was so astonished that someone would dig up a plant to give to me that I couldn't see the bigger picture. Thug is the right word. But delicious, beautiful, and appealing to bees! 😅🤷♀️ It was a good learning experience.
I love adding the Yellow or Orange Nasturtium flowers to my salad and also the BIG leafy green leaves but they are a little bit spicy hot but they make the salad a step above the usual green salad! A lot of people don’t know about using them and so I love putting my salad in a hand created special big wooden bowl with the beautiful flowers and leaves placed around the bowl
Agree! Recently saw a tip to grow some in a shadier area, less flowers but bigger leaves that can be used for wraps. Looking forward to doing that this summer!
MINT. ALSO MINT. we planted it IN A POT years ago and no matter how many times we try it does NOT go away. but it barely leaves (haha) the garden, mantises love to live in it, and it's good for tea so i can't complain too much
Everything in the Mint family grows like crazy. Surprisingly enough strawberries also love to branch out super quickly and within two years will have conquered the majority of your garden bed.
If you have lots of mint spreading then, get a countertop distiller. Insert a collapsible, metal steamer inside the chamber and fill it with around 6 handfuls of fresh mint leaves. It's intoxicatingly refreshing. The liquid is clear and the mint oil is distilled into it. It tingles down the throat. Whole Foods used to sell an 8-oz glass bottle for around $4 or 5. Use the mint water in lemonade, Mojitos, iced teas, hot chocolate, freeze into ice cubes ...
P.s. Please don’t fix this, I want to listen to it over and over and over again! Also, the nasturtium tastes really good when it’s cold outside, so try it in the winter, it’s really good. 👍 😁
These are all gorgeous. Capers are actually pickled Nasturtium buds. Only thing about Nasturtiums is that they're aphid magnets. No problem if you spray with some water with a few drop of dawn dish soap. The leaves are peppery tasting. Delicious. Some people put the flowers in salads as well.
Yeah, agreed. Not sure if there are different types with different flavour profiles but the ones I've had were peppery and reminiscent of mustard greens.
@@riccardodellorto4267I've only ever had it raw in garden salads. It was decent considering its comparatively harsh flavour profile but it overpowers just about everything else in the salad.
you can add it to just about anything, maybe add soup to the list too or pizza and pasta...but you have to like the flavour of it first. don't go putting it in unless you like it. 😅 I love nasturtiums...apparently it's good for a range of health benefits(declogging) for the upper respiratory tract infections too...and digestion.
Alyssum is a wonderful little garden flower. I was told it wouldn’t survive my zone, but it survived and spread. You can pull it up easy and replant it where ever you want.
@@manifoldgrapes124 I didn't say ALL varmints! Try blood meal. They HATE the smell of THAT as do many other varmints because it suggests a predator may be around..
@@manifoldgrapes124 "Varmints" refers to wild animals that are considered pests under most circumstances, such as moles and mice. They aren't protected by game law, whereas deer are due to their value to humans. I hear you about deer being pests sometimes, though. The city deer around my family's cemetery eat every supposedly "deer-proof" plant I put out. 😮💨 Well, except citronella. Would be nice to have some prettier options, though.
Alyssum is one of my favorite flowers, the honey smell of the blooms is amazing! Back when I grew them in California, they definitely stuck around whenever conditions were favorable long enough, but with enough repeated drought they will start to die off. Now in NJ, combination of hard freezes and drought will knock them out after a couple seasons. They'll still spread like the dickens in a short time though.
I seeded a bunch of creeping thyme and alyssum around the borders of our property and clover in the middle parts. I’m hoping that it spreads everywhere! I live in Nebraska so I figure it will grow during the warm months and go dormant or reseed itself in the winter?
Also, arugula apparently?? I live in the desert and this was the second spring so far that it sprang back up and flourished after completely abandoning my garden bc it’s no fun and way too expensive in the desert🥲 I completely ignore it, no watering, nothing, and it lasts for months before the summer sun finally kills it. I’ve noticed it’s slowly starting to inch its way toward the more shaded area every year, though, so that’s kind of neat! Adapt and overcome, little (huge) arugula! My alyssum, of course, is riding its tailcoats haha
I love the way these guys pronounce names of plants and food items the funniest ways. I do that too when I pronounce jalapeño 'jalap ah no' or champagne as 'shamp pag ney' when I go into stores just to have a laugh with the clerks. 😊
Nasturtium leaves do NOT taste like gasoline. They are an absolutely wonderful peppery garlic type flavor. They are best eaten YOUNG meaning before they get very big.
you're absolutely right,they are delicious. he made a video recommending you grow them but admitted he is personally not a fan of the taste. He's doing it for engagement.
It looks good though, I am looking forward to planting it now that I discovered its existence. Or is it that bad that I shouldn't even make a dedicated zone to it?
I had a neighbor across the street who was from India and had a garden in her backyard. One of the items was a chili pequin plant. Presumably, the birds ate them and spread the seeds to my own yard. The plants flourished and were over 3 foot tall and at least that wide. I’m allergic to peppers. Several workers would ask if they could take some and I told them to take as many as they wanted. Coworkers found out and they wanted some so I had to put on vinyl gloves to pick them and some wanted the leaves as well. I still have plants more than 20 years later. They are drought tolerant so I leave them alone. They also have pretty red chilies if they are left on the plant.
Hundred percent correct I just happen to plant nasturtium, sweet, alyssum and chamomile for the first time last year. This spring chamomile and Alyssum are re-popping up in random places. Can’t wait to see where the nasturtium grow.
@@silvesan9162 I made a chocolate,a sour cream,and a strawberry cake and froze them,so the cream cheese frosting wouldn’t tear the delicate cake as I put on the icing.then I stacked it,and covered it with edible flowers and a fairy on top👍
@@riccardodellorto4267I live in a small kind of farm town and we have these in big pots and stuff all around town and we just will sneak them and eat them straight off the plant😂 the flowers are good and spicy !!!
Same! I don't think they taste like gasoline. More like spicy arugula. I like adding these as another ingredient to a salad. I add the tender leaves and flowers! Makes the salad so pretty!
Spearmint and peppermint are basically weeds and grow wild in North Dakota, which is a pretty harsh climate. They are pretty good for starting gardens from what I heard.
@@thissunchildit was mis-pronounced 😊on purpose to get people talking. Think about it...a gardener like him not knowing how it's truly pronounced? Or he just said it jokingly 😅
Chamomile... that's a new one on me. I was floored. I watched this 12 times just to hear him say it over and over. I may make it a notification sound on my phone. Hahahaha
Just like how Nigella says Mee-cro-waa-vey for microwave! Love it! I’m going to call it Cha-mom-ma-lay from now on and say Eric, I mean Kevin, told me that’s how you say it. Lmao
I planted the Elyssium in a pot when I first moved in my house🪴. Someone in the house thought they can just reuse the dirt if they got what they thought were dried up weeds later that year🍂 (not knowing that those supposed weeds were) in a couple of different places on the property. 15 years later not only do these little white and purple flowers spring up on the property but they’ve mixed in the the local wild flowers on the surrounding hill sides. It’s gorgeous every spring 🌸🪻🌼🥰
Kevin I gotta give it to you… this is pure genious!! This is a like and comment passive income machine. Brilliant!! I could underestimate you like everyone else here, but something tells me this supposed mispronounciation was nothing but… it’s no wonder you have reached the apex of the youtube garden genre. Kudos to you!! He said… Shamoemelay 😭😭😭 I’m dying!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Don't forget the grain that keeps on growing, amaranth! 1kg of amaranth seeds can grow a full hectare of the plants...and produce upwards of 1,000kg of seeds. It was also a major grain of the Aztec Empire prior to the Spanish invasion, on par with maize.
Also any type of mint, it will never die I ripped mine out over and over and it just keeps coming back and spreading everywhere! It's super pretty when it flowers and it smells and tastes nice too!!!
A word of advice, please don't plant anything from the mint family in the ground. It spreads like wild fire and you'll never get rid of it, EVER. Plant it in a patio pot. You can plant the pot itself in the ground. I made the mistake of planting a tiny Greek Oregano in my garden. The roots have run under the ocean, under the continent and back to Greece. 25 years later I'm still fighting it. It's in everything, roses, everything.
@gailhall6283 lol yeah it does spread all over the damn place, hopefully not too invasive. Same thing with oregano all over my garden but I chop it all and dry it out yum
@@gailhall6283Lol, right? I learned my lesson with mint. Planted one plant about 25 years ago. It grew huge, and everywhere. A couple of years ago we poured a concrete patio where it grew, and it fortunately hasn't popped back up. I'll be more careful of what I plant from now on.
I have horseradish in my garden. I was told a rumor that it would take over the garden. Sadly, it stays right where I planted it, no more, no less. But, I did find out the deer don't like it, so I'm getting more. 😁
i got Nasturtium in a purchased lettuce seed package several years ago. Yes, they will never leave and pops up everywhere. Bad error. Now, I would like the Chamomile. I drink it every night to help me sleep. Happy gardening!😊
I thought the chamomile was dill at first and I was thinking "yup, very accurate, I didn't even plant dill and it's everywhere." It almost certainly came from the community garden compost! Pretty much every single plot has dill in it
The pronunciation of chamomile took me out.
😂😂 same
Was he trolling us or is everyone else been pronouncing it wrong?
Me too, thought I had been miss pronouncing it my entire life; I even googled it because I was so perplexed.

@@silvesan9162 I had them on my wedding cake.also lavender and roses🤗
@@thesorrowsofmotherlovejoy9894 must have been a stunningly beautiful cake!
@@silvesan9162 I made a chocolate,a sour cream,and a strawberry cake and froze them,so the cream cheese frosting wouldn’t tear the delicate cake as I put on the icing.then I stacked it,and covered it with edible flowers and a fairy on top👍
You had me there for a hot minute when you pronounced chamomile. Although not correct, I actually really love the way you say it!
I had to watch a second time to hear the nasturtium pronunciation, like did I zone out or did he literally only do that to chamomile 😂
Yep. Nasturtium sounds normal to me.
Nasturtium are so great for the garden as pest deterents. Being edible is a bonus!!!
"What kind of tea you makin?"
" Oh, some ee arrell grrrrrrrrrrr ee why. "
"Was just asking. No big reason."
The alyssum was one of my wife's favorites. Thanks for bringing that memory to me.
❤❤❤❤
You should plant some in her memory. 🥰
I grow Nasturtium in my garden (started as microgreens in my house), and I love the peppery flavor of its leaves!
Congratulations on being inducted into the Memedom Hall of Fame. 😂
This is super catchy!
Climate for sure. I have to replant all of these every year. But then I’ve never tried that fancy pants version of chamomile. 😂
I tried planting loose chamomile tea. It's growing!!
@roxannareneerantz638 how have u manage to grow cups of tea? The internet wants to know!😅
I’ve only ever gotten a few flowers on my nasturtium in Canada. I WISH it was a perennial here.
@@Rabellaka. Plant it in a pot and take it inside in winter
I love the way nasturtiums taste.
Where and how do you prepare it to eat it?
@@riccardodellorto4267I like it too. I use it in similar ways as watercress or arugula.
@@riccardodellorto4267I live in a small kind of farm town and we have these in big pots and stuff all around town and we just will sneak them and eat them straight off the plant😂 the flowers are good and spicy !!!
Same! I don't think they taste like gasoline. More like spicy arugula. I like adding these as another ingredient to a salad. I add the tender leaves and flowers! Makes the salad so pretty!
I love nasturtiums in my salad. I heard they are really good foe your eyes too!
He actually pronounced it correctly in terms of the old German pronunciation 😅❤ Well Almost. Should be Shah-moh-me-Leh
I just did my hollyhocks and my liatra. I'm hoping for the best these are definitely going to be next. Thank you
Spearmint and peppermint are basically weeds and grow wild in North Dakota, which is a pretty harsh climate. They are pretty good for starting gardens from what I heard.
Well, Kevin, you confused Garden Answer. Laura was wondering how to pronounce Chamomile on yesterday's video😂. Both of your channels are fantastic.
Good to know! ;)
@@epicgardening He pronounced it incorrectly. It's 'ka-muh-mile'. I don't know where he got 'sham-mar-mo-lay' from.
@@thissunchildit was mis-pronounced 😊on purpose to get people talking.
Think about it...a gardener like him not knowing how it's truly pronounced? Or he just said it jokingly 😅
@@wiseforce7045 That's how to get people talking about your content? Sad. Truly.
@@thissunchildit's just a joke sir, it made me laugh
I keep coming back just to hear Chamommuhlay😅 Absolute gold.
Chamomile... that's a new one on me. I was floored. I watched this 12 times just to hear him say it over and over. I may make it a notification sound on my phone. Hahahaha
I love your pronunciation of chamomile! Nasturtiums are beautiful!
Don't do that to me. Pronunciation of Chamomile made me spit out my chamomile tea.
Hahhahahahah absolutely hilarious 😂
You can the flowers of nasturtiums too. Lovely on top of a salad.
Chum-Oh-Mil-Ay. Love it!
Dill is another that never goes away. Spreads like crazy...
Great for butterflies, I think
Arugala grows like a weed in my yard. I planted some once 4 years ago and it grows like crazy. The bees love it.
I let it grow everywhere and the bees love it and it lasts the longest.
I love arugula and I had no idea it was easy to grow! Thank you 😁 I have a pretty black thumb, but I would love to grow what I can.
I love ground covers and am currently replacing a portion of my parents yard with it. Ill have to add some chomamolay too
Alyssum is great for potted plants too and they smell like a funeral home full of flowers. Sweet. 💮🌸💐🌺
“Cha-mom-a-lay” is how you pronounce “cam-mo-meel” ? (Chamomile)
💀 😂❤much fancier how he says it tho! I know in Italy it is pronounced how you wrote it(as far as I have experienced)
No… I’m pretty sure he’s just making a joke xd
No, that is not how it’s said at all lol
Just like how Nigella says Mee-cro-waa-vey for microwave! Love it! I’m going to call it Cha-mom-ma-lay from now on and say Eric, I mean Kevin, told me that’s how you say it. Lmao
No, he is incorrect. It is Ka-muh-mile
I planted the Elyssium in a pot when I first moved in my house🪴. Someone in the house thought they can just reuse the dirt if they got what they thought were dried up weeds later that year🍂 (not knowing that those supposed weeds were) in a couple of different places on the property. 15 years later not only do these little white and purple flowers spring up on the property but they’ve mixed in the the local wild flowers on the surrounding hill sides. It’s gorgeous every spring 🌸🪻🌼🥰
The flowers got back at them by spreading ❣️❣️❣️😂
He did not carefully instruct to identify & plant Only the NATIVE species. The others NonNative Invasive!!
Kevin: chahmomehlay
Me: WHUT
I've played this twenty times. Sha mom alay. This guy is a genius.
Kevin I gotta give it to you… this is pure genious!! This is a like and comment passive income machine. Brilliant!! I could underestimate you like everyone else here, but something tells me this supposed mispronounciation was nothing but… it’s no wonder you have reached the apex of the youtube garden genre. Kudos to you!! He said… Shamoemelay 😭😭😭 I’m dying!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Don't forget the grain that keeps on growing, amaranth! 1kg of amaranth seeds can grow a full hectare of the plants...and produce upwards of 1,000kg of seeds. It was also a major grain of the Aztec Empire prior to the Spanish invasion, on par with maize.
Cha-mom-ee-lay 🤣😆😂 that actually made me giggle out loud.
🎉😊You are an answer to my prayers...thank you for this information... Looking forward to more tips😊
Also any type of mint, it will never die I ripped mine out over and over and it just keeps coming back and spreading everywhere! It's super pretty when it flowers and it smells and tastes nice too!!!
A word of advice, please don't plant anything from the mint family in the ground. It spreads like wild fire and you'll never get rid of it, EVER. Plant it in a patio pot. You can plant the pot itself in the ground. I made the mistake of planting a tiny Greek Oregano in my garden. The roots have run under the ocean, under the continent and back to Greece. 25 years later I'm still fighting it. It's in everything, roses, everything.
@gailhall6283 lol yeah it does spread all over the damn place, hopefully not too invasive. Same thing with oregano all over my garden but I chop it all and dry it out yum
I planted mint, lemon balm n stinging nettles is container to minimize the spread..❤
@@LiLiotL It is good a little peppery. How do you make a great pizza sauce without Oregano? I think I have enough for two counties. Lol.
@@gailhall6283Lol, right? I learned my lesson with mint. Planted one plant about 25 years ago. It grew huge, and everywhere. A couple of years ago we poured a concrete patio where it grew, and it fortunately hasn't popped back up. I'll be more careful of what I plant from now on.
Nasturtium leaves are great! They have a horse radish flavor!
You can eat the flowers too. :)
They definitely do NOT taste like gasoline, ugh!
Yes! And they are spicy :)
Peppery and radish like is very accurate.
I have horseradish in my garden. I was told a rumor that it would take over the garden. Sadly, it stays right where I planted it, no more, no less.
But, I did find out the deer don't like it, so I'm getting more. 😁
i got Nasturtium in a purchased lettuce seed package several years ago. Yes, they will never leave and pops up everywhere. Bad error. Now, I would like the Chamomile. I drink it every night to help me sleep. Happy gardening!😊
I love nasturtium! The flowers and buds are so tasty!
Plant daddy you made me laugh today!! It’s my favorite tea no matter how you pronounce it! 😂
That sounded like a Mexican version of chamomile. Reminds me of chipotle. 😊
In Spanish it’s called manzanilla. Manzana meaning apple. Little apple.
@@iBlancoUC Thanks for that! 😊
Hearing people say "chipoltey" is like nails on a chalkboard
@@connald483 yes!!
Hahaha, I commented something similar. It does sound like something related to chipotle😂
The nasturtium flowers are pepper-y! Like arugula! Great in salads.
Good to know. I think we all need hardy plants around. I am planting nasturtiums this year and lupin too. Maybe they’ll both stick around forever!
I thought the chamomile was dill at first and I was thinking "yup, very accurate, I didn't even plant dill and it's everywhere." It almost certainly came from the community garden compost! Pretty much every single plot has dill in it
I love ginger root tea. Especially when im sick or am nauseous. Add honey and lemon. Yummy.
"Chom-om-a-lay"😂
Those are extremely invasive! But beautiful.
