Thymes (Thymus) |
Prev Perennial Aromatic Medicinal Edible |
Thyme in general does poorly for me. It looks nice for 1-2 seasons then loses vigor in the center, with scraggly growth along the tips. I've tried and lost the following specific cultivars: Archer's Gold, Pink Chintz, EB Anderson, Albus, Hartington Silver, Woolley Elfin seemed to do well along the edge of the pond, perhaps it got more water than the others. I lost this one in the water feature renovation, might be one to try again. |
