Not so much a cooking thyme, (and not a kindly wizard), this is a resilient sun-loving herb for rockeries, dry zones, poor soils, and Mediterranean style gardens.

Grow it for the aromatic foliage, which spreads to form a dense springy mat between pavers, and as a lawn alternative in low traffic areas. When the white flowers bloom they will lure in bees and butterflies.
