Plant Details

Growing Guide

Position

Plant in a sunny location where the foliage develops the best flavour and fragrance. Thyme is ideal for herb gardens, raised beds, gravel gardens and patio containers.

Soil

Grow in free-draining soil. Avoid heavy, waterlogged ground, especially during winter. Containers should have good drainage and a gritty, well-drained compost.

Watering

Water regularly while establishing. Once established, thyme is relatively drought tolerant and generally only requires additional watering during prolonged dry spells or when grown in containers.

Harvesting

Harvest fresh sprigs as needed throughout the growing season. The aromatic leaves can be used fresh or dried to flavour meat, fish, vegetables, soups, stews and roasted dishes.

Wildlife

The summer flowers provide a valuable source of nectar for bees and other pollinating insects.
