Elfin Thyme

Small but fiercely resilient, Elfin Thyme forms a dense, creeping mat of fragrant, deep green foliage, hugging the ground like a velvet carpet. This low-growing, no-fuss perennial thrives in rock gardens, between stepping stones, and along borders, creating a soft, textural layer that looks as good as it smells. But the real show comes in summer, when it bursts into a cloud of tiny lavender-pink flowers, drawing bees, butterflies, and garden admiration. Drought-tolerant, foot-traffic friendly, and practically maintenance-free, it’s the perfect choice for a groundcover that stays low, lush, and effortlessly charming.
