The photo at the top shows a three month old Elfin Thyme plant that was started in early spring from one of our 2 3/4 inch containers. It measures about 4 inches across. Elfin thyme flowers are the typical lilac color of most thymes. It blooms in early summer rather than in spring like many ground cover thymes. Elfin Thyme, like most thymes, needs at least five hours of sun a day to keep it from reaching for light and getting leggy. Below is the same Elfin Thyme plant the following year. This is actually two plants that have grown together. Like all thymes if it has something to climb up, it will. |

Elfin Thyme's small, closely spaced flowers and leaves makes it not only one of the smallest thymes but also one of the slowest growing thymes. Elfin Thyme is a good choice for planting between stepping stones where spaces may be very small. It is often included in our popular Flagstone Filler Assortment.
