Thyme is a low-growing, woody perennial herb with tiny, aromatic gray-green leaves on slender stems. The leaves have a warm, earthy, slightly minty and lemony flavor that intensifies when dried. It is excellent for seasoning roasted meats, poultry, vegetables, soups, stews, marinades, and herb blends like bouquet garni. This variety is a good choice for Utah because it is extremely drought-tolerant once established, thrives in our hot, dry summers and alkaline soils with excellent drainage and full sun, and remains evergreen through mild winters. It's great for containers. Its compact growth habit, attractive foliage, and ability to attract beneficial pollinators while providing abundant fresh leaves make it an essential, low-maintenance herb for any kitchen or patio garden.
