    Hi Friends. Please note that if you go for Elfin Thyme for that tight packed very very short Thyme it is bumpy so don't expect golf putting green but it is amazing as a grass replacement as long as you are okay with your grass replacement not being flat. I love mine

    I bought the thyme from robertas , through QVC -could hardly wait to get it -purchased the red,pinkand white--when taking it out of the trays they fell apart simply because there was no root system--the gardeners had to have known their plants were nt ready to be shipped out to the customers but did not care --they made it look real good on QVC what a joke will never deal with them again

      I’ve never had luck with QVC plants. Never looks like the pics and rarely grows. Very misleading advertising.

      I bought this years ago, got purple. I absolutely love it but the purple flowers are very light more white but I love it put in places where weeds were awful and now very few weeds and very green. The polinators love it too.

    I’m currently growing Corsican mint in places but summers full sun is a lil too much for it. I need a grass replacement (horrid couch grass which NEVER DIES)..this thyme could be it if it genuinely is drought tolerant AND I can buy it here. Thanks in advance

      @@tam6753 idk if you have already tried and got the answer to your worries. But if not, I have recently bought and planted seeds from ebay, and they sprouted fast, and grew fast. I even left some outside and it survived the snow. Well, most of it did.lol so, depending on the seller you got your seeds, they should do fine. I'm sure you already know this as well, but always plant a test bunch of seeds from ebay in a pot and allow them to grow a while to make sure they are what they were described to be and that no other seeds were mixed in. That has happened to me. I had seeds that were supposed to be one thing and they turned to be another, unidentified plant. And I've also had random sprouts from seeds that mixed in with my intended plant.

      @@katalinacastanares4602 thank you so much for your kind reply. I didn't actually receive the seeds because apparently we aren't allowed to bring these plants or seeds into my country (wasn't aware of this rule). So the parcel was detained and destroyed by customs :( but thank you very much, and I hope yours are blooming beautifully!! :)

      @adrabruzzese7610 4 роки тому +2

      Yes, bought this 4 yrs ago to plant where I couldnt dig due to huge long trees roots. It has controlled weeds and filled in pretty quickly. I got the purple, will say in zone 6 it's not evergreen in winter and the flowers are so light they look white. But for an area you dont want weeds that's sunny I recommend this. I do trim it in late fall because it will get ratty looking once flowers fade.

    • @suzannedu419
      @suzannedu419 7 років тому +13

      I don't think so. Thyme is an herb - bees may be attracted if you let it bloom. It will choke out grass - reason I started planting in bare spots in my front lawn. I want it to eventually take over. You can mow it and it still looks good and smells nice, and softer than grass so you can walk on it barefoot. In a drought, it stays green. It's the perfect alternative to grass.
