Thyme, Creeping (Thymus serphyllum), packet of 100 seeds, organic

Family:  Mint (Lamiaceae)

Zones 5 to 9

Creeping groundcover native to temperate Europe.  Flowers pink-purple to 3 inches.  Generally more popular for filling the cracks in sidewalks than in eggs, the plant does have a certain presence, and a bit of a spiciness, especially if carefully dried and the dried leaves removed from the stem. The plant is preferred for decking out classic settings such as sundials and decorative fountains.  Sow in flats and work up in small pots or plugs, then set out to 6 inches apart and a mat will soon form.
