Golden Lemon Thyme – Thymus Citriodorus ‘Aurea’) – 5 Pack Of Quart Pots

---

Adding an extremely fine and delicate texture and outstanding color to the landscape or garden, and excellent flavor for teas and many dishes, the Golden Lemon Thyme is a showy, spreading perennial displaying abundant spikes of lavender flowers that rise just above the colorful variegated foliage during summer. The fragrant leaves emerge chartreuse in spring maturing to green with a distinctive gold edge. Though excellent for ornamental use and color in the garden, this Thyme also has many culinary uses as a seasoning in cooking or to flavor tea. The leaves can be harvested any time of year.

Growing in a ground-hugging carpet to 6 inches tall and spreading to 18 inches or more over time, Golden Lemon Thyme is ideal for use in the landscape or edible garden as a border along paths and walkways or massed as a groundcover or underplanting for shrubs, roses and small trees, such as Japanese maples. Also excellent as a soil cover and spiller plant in pots, planters and other containers. A fine addition to herb gardens, edible landscape gardens, rock gardens and the Xeriscape (low water needs).

Suggested Spacing:  15 inches for mass planting or solid borders
