This thyme cultivar is used as a culinary herb and is said to be sweeter than the species. It can also be used as a ground cover (it will tolerate light foot traffic and release a wonderful herby fragrance when stepped on). It can grow to 12" tall and 12” wide. It blooms in midsummer with pale pink flowers that are attractive to bees. This cultivar is not as winter-hardy as the species. It grows in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils in full sun and can tolerate drought and soils of low fertility. It will rot in moist to wet soils. Cut back stems as necessary to maintain plant appearance and size.
