I've had problems with chamomile "disappearing" on me after a few seasons. This one is supposedly evergreen, so I'm hoping it will be easier to keep track of. Per the label, it "seldom blooms," which has clearly not been the case for me. I had lots of bloom the first season. It also spread out well and I'm hoping it will be a reliable groundcover for the cosmetic section of my herb garden.
