This heirloom perennial offers aromatic, tiny leaves packed with flavor — perfect for seasoning, pollinators, and low-maintenance herb gardens.



Why You’ll Love It

Thyme is a must-have heirloom herb known for its rich, savory flavor and compact, low-growing habit. Perfect for fresh or dried use, thyme complements everything from soups and roasts to marinades and vegetables. It’s drought-tolerant, easy to grow, and comes back year after year in zones 5 and up. With tiny, fragrant leaves and delicate purple blooms, it’s a favorite of bees and gardeners alike — ideal for borders, rock gardens, or container planting.
