Thymus

Thyme

“I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,” says Oberon to Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Upright or creeping, these aromatic culinary herbs form luscious mats of ground cover or sprite-sized shrubs, embellished with miniature flowers in whites, purples and pinks. In the herb garden, or around and between stepping stones or bricks, Thymes love sun and well drained soil, and can even tolerate a dose of wind and salt spray.

Thymus ‘Latavin Lucy’ full sun

Hailing from Latavin, this topnotch, rarely offered cultivar is the perfect choice for nestling between stepping stones. Resilient, deep green pint-sized leaves cavort close to the ground forming lustrous mats spangled with a slew of miniature, rosy purple blooms.

Blooms June–July.

Size: 3" high x 18"–2' wide; hardy to zone 5.

Customer Comment:

“I held my breath and opened the box (after a long delay in opening the delivered plants, due to catastrophic flooding), dug down through the damp paper shreds and found all the plants alive!!!! I'm so relieved. I had to write and thank you for the hardiness of the plants, and for packing them so carefully.... Thank you, Digging Dog. I'll be back.”
