- Drought-tolerant: Creeping Thyme is a tough and hardy plant that can withstand periods of drought and heat, making it a great choice for areas with hot summers or limited water resources.
Care Guide
Care Guide
- Watering: Creeping Thyme prefers well-draining soil and does not like to be overwatered. Water the plant deeply once a week during the growing season, and reduce watering in the winter months.
- Maintenance: Creeping Thyme is a low-maintenance plant and does not require regular care.
- Pruning: In the growing season, trim the tips of the stems to encourage bushier growth and more blooms. After the plant has finished blooming, trim back the spent flowers to prevent self-seeding and to promote new growth.
- (Optional):Fertilizer: Creeping Thyme does not require regular fertilization, but it can benefit from a light application of a balanced fertilizer in the spring.
