Creeping Thyme, Purple Carpet

A delightful low-growing groundcover that blankets the soil with aromatic, dark green foliage, which is then topped in summer with a flush of lavender-purple blossoms. The effect is like a soft floral carpet that seems to glow when in full bloom. Because its flower stems rise only slightly above the foliage, the plant remains delicate and low to the ground, making it ideal for edging, rock gardens, mass plantings, or filling gaps between stepping stones.
