Herb Thyme Silver Posie Potted Plants are a hardy, compact herb with bushy, evergreen foliage and a spreading, mat-forming habit. The aromatic leaves have attractive white margins and a fresh lemon scent, making this variety equally useful as an ornamental plant and as a home-grown ingredient. Pick the leaves throughout the year to add flavour to meat and poultry dishes.

Small lilac-pink flowers appear from June to August, bringing extra colour to the garden and providing a valuable food source for bees and butterflies. Its neat, variegated foliage looks particularly effective planted along border edges, in herb gardens, containers or hanging baskets.

Plant in well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Water regularly while the plants establish, taking care not to leave the soil waterlogged. Once settled, this hardy, low-maintenance perennial requires little attention and can be lightly trimmed after flowering to help maintain a compact, bushy shape.

Your option is supplied as 3 x 9cm potted plants for despatch in November, ready for planting into their final positions. Growing together is even more rewarding when a plant brings colour, fragrance, wildlife and fresh flavour to the garden throughout the seasons.
