Chamomile seeds didnt sprout - time to move on ???

Hello in November i planted some chamomile seeds in an area of the garden about 1 square metre. They didnt sprout and instead something else started growing in the area i.e. some form of weed. I now have some partridge berry plants and i was thinking of planting those in the area that the chamomile seeds were sown. Is this a good idea or will it cause problems. I'm working on the assumption that the chamomille will never grow.

 

Partridge berry, Leycesteria?
Bit different from Chamomile.

 

OK but do you think the seeds that are in the ground will come up? i dont want to put the other plants in just to have chamomile sprouting up in between the berry plant

PS the seeds were sown directly into the soil but some compost was added in

 

They were sowed in November 2022
