Woolly Thyme (Thymus pseudolanuginosus)

Soft, fragrant, and low-growing, Woolly Thyme is a charming groundcover perfect for adding texture and resilience to your garden. This mat-forming perennial features tiny, silvery-gray leaves covered in a soft, fuzzy texture—hence its name. Its dense, spreading habit makes it ideal for filling gaps between stepping stones, cascading over rock walls, or softening garden edges.
 
In early to mid-summer, Woolly Thyme produces small, pink to lavender flowers that attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. Drought-tolerant and deer-resistant, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a low-maintenance favorite for xeriscaping, herb gardens, or decorative pathways.
 
Add a touch of softness and scent to your garden with Woolly Thyme—a durable and decorative groundcover that’s as practical as it is pretty.
