A vigorous, creeping thyme perfect for cascading from herb pots, hanging baskets and over rockeries or walls. With an intense, fizzy lemonade scent, the list of fantastic culinary and beverage possibilities are numerous (and delicious!). ‘Lemonade’ produces pink flowers in the summer over its light-green foliage.
After flowering trim back using garden shears to retain a neat compact shape. If this is done promptly after flowering the plant will often flower again towards the autumn. Lift and divide large clumps in early spring.
