Thyme Seeds - Creeping

Thymus serpyllum Planting Creeping Thyme seeds in your garden will provide you with a beautiful, walkable ground cover. A lovely choice for planting between stepping stones, in rock gardens, or as a foreground planting in borders. Only grows to 2-4" tall, and every bit as sweet-smelling as full-sized thyme. Will produce a mass of pretty purple flowers when grown in full sun, but is also vigorous in full shade. If planting in a shady area, beware that you probably won't get many flowers.  Creeping Thyme can be direct sown in a location with full sun and well-draining soil after all danger of frost has passed. You may also start seeds indoors 8-12 weeks before your last frost date. Germination is typically slow, though cold stratification may improve germination rates. It can take up to two years for creeping thyme to reach full maturity. 0.25 gram packet contains approximately 600 seeds.
