Create a beautiful, fragrant carpet in your garden with Praecox Woolly Thyme, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its soft silvery foliage, low-growing spreading habit, and charming pink to lavender flowers. Thymus praecox, commonly known as Woolly Thyme, is a hardy perennial ground cover that attracts bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators while adding texture and year-round interest to rock gardens, pathways, and borders. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Thymus praecox thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. Its dense, mat-forming habit makes it ideal for filling spaces between stepping stones, cascading over rock walls, or softening the edges of garden beds. Once established, this drought-tolerant perennial requires minimal maintenance and performs beautifully in water-wise landscapes.
