Creeping Thyme

T. serpyllum
Creeping thyme is an ornamental. From a tiny clump of little seedlings comes a spreading mat of scented foliage covered with pink flowers. It makes for excellent coverage and os easy for rock gardens. A mat-forming sub-shrub grows to maximum heights of 15cm (6") and blooms May to August. Grow in full sun, well drained soil, moderate to low water. Use in rock or herb gardens, as an edging along paths or as a groundcover. Zones 4-9.
