As popular as creeping thyme is and great for growing in a lawn setting; unfortunately, there have been recent crop failures and supply is very limited. As a result, seed costs have increased 2-3x what they were in previous years.
Creeping Thyme Thymus serpyllum is very low growing (about 2-4") under the canopy of the grass and clover and has flexible woody stems with small leaves and pink to purple flowers from July to August. Creeping Thyme prefers sandy or loam soil and full sun to produce the most flowers but will grow fine in lower light conditions with just a bit fewer flowers. Creeping thyme is slow to get going so don’t expect to see much of anything in the first season, but once established, it puts on a show!
