Description
'Purple Carpet' Creeping Thyme is a sensory delight, combining vivid color, heady fragrance, and practical charm. This low-growing perennial spills across the ground in a mat of tiny purple blooms each spring, offering nectar for pollinators and perfume for passersby. Its evergreen, aromatic foliage continues to delight even when flowers fade.
Tough yet beautiful, Creeping Thyme thrives in full sun and average, well-drained soil. It’s ideal between pavers, in rock gardens, or as a lawn alternative that supports biodiversity. Deer give it a pass, bees give it five stars, and gardeners give it space to sprawl—and sparkle.
Planting & Care
Shipping
No shipping data
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.
