Thyme lemon variegated is a compact evergreen perennial with tiny, narrowly-ovate green leaves variegated in cream. The foliage is highly aromatic, releasing a citrussy scent whenever it is brushed past. Small lilac-pink flowers appear in summer and last all season. These are a magnet for pollinators, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects to the garden.
Lemon thyme is a popular culinary herb that is bursting with antioxidants. It adds flavour to stews, casseroles, chutneys and stuffings as well as complementing fish and chicken dishes. It is an excellent addition to a bouquet-garni and is often used to make herbal tea.
