Grow a unique and aromatic herb with Faustinoi Thyme, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its fragrant evergreen foliage, compact growth habit, and ornamental beauty. Thymus × faustinoi, commonly known as Faustinoi Thyme, is a hardy perennial herb well suited for herb gardens, rock gardens, borders, patio containers, and Mediterranean landscapes. Its flavorful leaves are excellent for seasoning meats, poultry, vegetables, soups, sauces, roasted dishes, and herb blends. Its nectar-rich flowers also attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Faustinoi Thyme thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. Its dense, low-growing evergreen foliage forms an attractive mound that works beautifully as an edging plant or in rock gardens. During late spring and summer, clusters of soft pink to lavender flowers bloom above the foliage, adding seasonal color while supporting pollinators. Once established, this drought-tolerant perennial requires very little maintenance.

You will receive one healthy, greenhouse-grown Faustinoi Thyme starter live plant, carefully packaged for safe arrival.
