Ground Cover Thyme Seeds for Landscaping produce a low growing perennial herb commonly used as a living groundcover in gardens, pathways, and landscape designs. This plant forms dense mats of small aromatic leaves that spread close to the soil surface, creating a carpet like effect over time. It is widely used between stepping stones, along borders, and in rock gardens where a durable, low maintenance planting is desired. During the blooming season, it produces small purple to pink flowers that attract bees and other pollinators. It performs best in full sun and well drained soil and is well suited for dry and low maintenance landscapes.
