Thyme

Thyme is a versatile herb. It is great in salad dressings and marinades. It is also good in sauces, folded in butter to make a nice herbed butter and infused in olive oil. I also like to use thyme as an ornamental. In July it blooms with purple pom pom flowers that lasts for weeks. It also spreads nicely so we use it in borders and to fill in gaps between steps and stones.
