Creeping thyme, also known as Wild thyme, Mother-of-thyme, Breckland thyme, Elfin thyme
Creeping thyme is a hardy, perennial herb known for its low-maintenance and ground-covering abilities. Key care points include ensuring well-draining soil and full sun exposure for optimal growth. Overwatering should be avoided as creeping thyme is drought-tolerant and susceptible to root rot. Regular trimming can maintain its spreading habit and encourage denser foliage. These traits make creeping thyme an easy plant to care for, suitable for gardeners of all levels.
