Common Thyme

Brief Description

A low-growing, woody perennial evergreen shrub with small, grayish-green oval leaves and tiny pinkish-purple or white flowers.

Care Instructions

Thyme requires full sun and well-draining soil. It is drought-tolerant once established and prefers to dry out between waterings. Regular pruning after flowering helps maintain its shape and prevents it from becoming too woody (note: the plant in the image appears to have significant die-back and may require heavy pruning of dead wood to encourage new growth from the base).
