Silver Edge Thyme is an aromatic, edible, mat-forming herbaceous perennial used for flavoring food. The tiny green foliage with messy cream to silver margins and silver highlights are supported by upright stems. Waves of tiny lavender-pink flowers bloom in mid summer. Grows best with full sun and well-drained soils. Drought tolerant.
