Thyme 'Silver' - 4" Pot
Thyme 'Silver', often referring to cultivars like Thymus vulgaris 'Argenteus' or similar variegated varieties such as 'Silver Posie' or 'Silver Queen', is a charming evergreen perennial herb known for its aromatic foliage. The tiny leaves are green with distinctive silvery-white edges or margins, creating an elegant, frosted appearance that adds ornamental appeal to gardens. This low-growing plant produces small clusters of pale purple or pink flowers in summer, attracting pollinators while releasing a pleasant fragrance when brushed or crushed.
Typically reaching 6-12 inches in height and spreading 12-24 inches wide, Thyme 'Silver' thrives in USDA hardiness zones 4-9 (or up to 11 in some forms), preferring full sun and well-drained soil. It excels as a drought-tolerant groundcover, edging, or container plant. Culinary uses include fresh or dried leaves for seasoning soups, meats, and vegetables, with a classic thyme flavor sometimes accented by lemon notes; it's also valued ornamentally for rock gardens or borders.
