Description

If your into pretty plants that are also great for culinary uses, English Thyme is a must-have perennial herb for gardens and containers. It forms an eye-catching spreading mound of very fragrant, strong flavored leaves. Clusters of pink to lavender flowers appear in late spring and summer that the butterflies and other beneficial pollinators will appreciate. Excellent in pots that can be situated on patios and decks or to grow indoors on a sunny windowsill. A nice accent in small garden spaces or in groupings, mass plantings as a groundcover or as a border to line a path or surround a patio. The leaves are useful to flavor soft cheeses, soups, stews, stuffing, poultry, fish, dressings, sauces and even honey. Both dried leaves and flowers are excellent for potpourri, sachets, wreaths and floral arrangements.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 6 to 12 inches tall and spreading 24 inches or more wide, English Thyme is ideal for use in pots or in garden beds. A nice accent in small garden spaces or in groupings, mass plantings as a groundcover or as a border to line a path, walkways or surround a patio. It can be grown indoors with adequate light, such as on a sunny windowsill. A fine addition to herb gardens, pink theme gardens, culinary gardens, rock gardens and the Xeriscape (low water needs).

Suggested Spacing: 18 inches apart for mass planting; 36 inches apart for space between plants

Growing Preferences

English Thyme is easy to grow in a light, lightly moist but well-drained soil and full sun. A little shade is okay. Will tolerate rainy periods but constantly soggy or wet soil is a killer. So make sure to plant in a well-drained site!
