Planting Instructions:

  1. Prepare the area: Remove weeds and loosen topsoil.
  2. Scatter seeds evenly on surface β€” do not cover with soil as thyme needs light to germinate.

  4. Thin plants to 6–12 inches apart once established.

πŸ“… Best time to sow: Spring to early summer. Fall planting is possible in mild climates.

FAQs

Does Red Creeping Thyme really grow between pavers or stepping stones?
Yes! It’s perfect for use between stones β€” grows low, spreads wide, and releases a fresh scent when walked on.

How long does it take to see flowers?
You can expect vibrant blooms in the second growing season, although some may appear in year one under ideal conditions.

Can I use this instead of grass?
Yes! Red Creeping Thyme is a beautiful lawn alternative, especially in sunny areas with light foot traffic.

Is it safe for pets and kids?
Absolutely. It’s non-toxic, non-GMO, and barefoot-friendly, making it great for family gardens.

I’ve bought these seeds to fill in areas in between red creeping tyme plugs I have bought elsewhere. I did realize as the seeds grew
The characteristics of this tyme are very similar to ripple tyme
And I have absolutely no problem with that.
5 months of growth and it came out great

red thyme

My red thyme sees sprouted and are growing nicely. I tried to plant them individually (tiny, tiny seeds) and managed pretty well. I plan to put them in the ground as plugs. I didn’t receive my seeds the first time around and had trouble with the delivery company. I could never reach a real live person. When I communicated this to Seed World they immediately sent out a new order at no cost to me. This is a good part of the reason I gave them 5 stars - excellent service. Thank You!!!
