Unit price perThymus vulgaris
Common Thyme is a hardy evergreen perennial growing to around 30 cm tall, valued for its fine flavour and fragrant foliage. An indispensable culinary herb, the aromatic leaves complement meats, fish, soups, stews and vegetables, and are excellent infused into vinegars and oils. In the garden, thyme attracts bees and other beneficial pollinators while helping to deter cabbage moths when planted amongst brassicas. Traditionally, thyme tea has also been used as a natural garden spray to help discourage powdery mildew.
Approximately 4,000–5,000 seeds per gram
Approximately 300 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to July
Subtropics: August to October
Mild climates: Spring and autumn
Cold climates: Spring after frost
Planting / Sowing
Sow seed on the surface of a fine, well-drained seed-raising mix, lightly press into the soil without covering, as light assists germination. Keep moist until seedlings emerge. Transplant into a sunny position with well-drained soil, spacing plants 25–30 cm apart. Thyme thrives in dry, sunny conditions once established and requires little maintenance. Harvest sprigs regularly to encourage compact, bushy growth.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

FLOWER SEEDS WITH EDEN
Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
