I love the rich color of the blooms, but the scent is mild to nonexistant. I have 'Coconut Thyme' growing in the same window box. I think it's the same species, and it has similar foliage, but it looks like the blooms on it will be more lavender. The flowers and the tiny, crispy foliage and very low growth make up for the lack of scent. These are two of the thymes I'm propagating to edge my patio! |
