Thyme Growers Choice Mix

Compact, aromatic & beautifully textured—our thymes bring year-round scent, colour & culinary value to borders, containers & herb gardens.

Our Thyme Collection offers beautifully aromatic, compact herbs perfect for edging, rockeries, patio pots & sunny borders. You can choose from Thyme ‘Precompa’, known for its dense, deep green foliage & soft pink-lilac blooms; Lemon Variegated Thyme, with bright gold-edged citrus-scented leaves & early summer pink flowers; or the Growers Choice Mix, which may include ‘Precompa’, ‘Lemon Variegated’, ‘Doone Valley’ & traditional Garden Thyme for a varied blend of fragrances, colours & forms. Each variety provides low mounds or spreading mats of evergreen foliage that stay attractive year-round while releasing rich herbal scent when touched or brushed. 

Each plant is supplied as a healthy, fresh & fully established 1L rootball, expertly grown in premium peat-free compost for strong early establishment, richer foliage & reliable long-term performance. These real, outdoor-ready thyme plants are vigorous, well-rooted & delivered at the ideal size for planting straight into beds, pots or herb planters. Naturally drought-tolerant, low-maintenance & hardy in UK gardens, they thrive in full sun & well-drained soil with only light trimming after flowering.
