Wilders 3.5' Thyme French

Thymus vulgaris 'French' French thyme is a refined, slightly sweeter and more delicate version of common English thyme. Its fine-textured gray-green leaves offer a subtler, less bitter flavor—making it a favorite in French cuisine and perfect for seasoning poultry, vegetables, sauces, and bouquet garni. With its compact, low-growing habit, it’s both a culinary staple and a beautiful addition to borders, containers, and rock gardens. Hardy in Northern Connecticut (Zones 5–6), French thyme is a tough perennial that thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It is drought tolerant once established and blooms with tiny pale pink to lavender flowers in early summer, attracting pollinators.
