Time for Thyme


In the latest chapter of My Brown Thumb Ain't So Brown These Days, please behold all of these adorable baby plants! I'm planning giving over a good half of my yard to creeping thyme. It crowds out weeds, thrives on neglect, and is drought tolerant. It's also pretty, fragrant, and has these sweet, tiny pink flowers! I bought eight plants from the greenhouse last summer and only half of them survived the winter, so I thought I'd give raising them from seed a shot. We shall see how these fare once they are out in the yard. Wish me luck. And a greener thumb.
