Wooly Thyme

Wooly Thyme

Wooly Thyme is a charming and hardy groundcover known for its soft, fuzzy foliage and compact growth habit. Typically growing 1-2 inches in height and spreading 12-18 inches, this variety of thyme forms a dense mat of silvery-green leaves that are covered in tiny, woolly hairs. Wooly Thyme produces small, pink to lavender flowers in late spring and early summer, adding a splash of color to its attractive foliage. It’s ideal for creating low-maintenance groundcover, filling in gaps between stepping stones, or adding texture and interest to garden beds and rock gardens.
