Juniper Thyme
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 and ornamental herbs form luscious mats of ground cover or sprite-sized shrubs, embellished with miniature flowers in whites, purples and pinks. Sprinkled throughout the herb garden, or around stepping stones or bricks, Thymes love sun and well-drained soil, and can even tolerate a dose of wind and salt spray.

Distinctive Juniper-style gray foliage makes this hard-to-find Thyme unique among other species in the genus. Stubby, needle-shaped aromatic leaves tightly cling to reddish brown stems that lay flat on the ground, bearing bee-friendly mauve-pink blooms in spring. Awash with soft pastel shades, Juniper Thyme can be threaded between pavers and draped over rock work or container edges.
