Thymus vulgaris
Common Thyme
White-lilac flowers. Aromatic, small oval grey-green foliage.
Growing & Maintenance Tips
Full sun in a loose, well-drained soil. Thyme will perform very well in poor, dry soil and is less vigorous in partial shade. Garden thyme is a universal herb. The leaves and flowering stems are used in sachets, and the dried flowers have been used to preserve linens from insects.
