Summer Thyme (Thymus vulgaris)

This variant of time is the most flavorful. A low growing perennial herb that is drought tolerant and pollinator friendly. This herb goes well with soups, grilled meats, and vegetables. This is a tender perennial that may survive in Ohio, but it’s best to overwinter in a pot if you don’t want to lose your herb.
