Advice from our agronomist
Planting. Plant in a sunny, warm spot in light, well-drained, preferably limy soil, 20–25 cm apart.
Watering and feeding. Water moderately – thyme hates wet feet. Feed sparingly; too much nitrogen reduces the aroma.
Care. Trim lightly in spring and after flowering to keep the bush compact. Pick leaves all summer.
Overwintering. Cover with spruce branches in frosty winters without snow; winter wet is more dangerous than cold.
