Add refreshing citrus fragrance to your herb garden with Lime Thyme, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its aromatic evergreen foliage, light lime-citrus scent, and exceptional culinary versatility. Thymus citriodorus, commonly known as Lime Thyme, is a hardy perennial herb with a delicate citrus aroma that enhances both gardens and kitchens. Its flavorful leaves are excellent for seasoning poultry, seafood, vegetables, marinades, soups, and herbal teas, while its nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Thymus citriodorus thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. Its compact, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for herb gardens, rock gardens, borders, raised beds, and containers. During late spring through summer, clusters of soft pink to lavender flowers rise above the fragrant foliage, adding ornamental beauty while supporting pollinators.
