Silver Lemon Thyme
Silver Lemon Thyme is a uniquely fragrant and delicious thyme that also makes a wonderful landscape plant. Placed near the edge of a pathway or between pavers will cause the aromatic oils to fill the air anytime you brush against them. The small round leaves have a beautiful light variegation along their outer edge and really light up a pathway, especially at night.
