Creeping Lemon Thyme
Thymus pulegioides 'Lemon'
Uses: Culinary/Medicinal/Aromatic Duration: Perennial (hardy in zones 5-9)
Delightful uplifting lemon aroma and flavour! Great groundcover variety as it is an aggressive creeper producing large leaves and bold pink flowers that attract pollinators. Not only is it attractive, but also a welcomed flavour in the kitchen! Grows as a 6-12 inch spreading mound which looks great when grown as a mass planting and in rock gardens. Plant in sandy, well drained soil in full sun. Thyme is typically low maintenance, but will need to be trimmed back after flowering to encourage a bushy growth. Thyme is sensitive to over watering, as is is susceptible to fungal diseases and root rot. Harvest in the morning, as concentrations of aromatic oils are highest at this time.
