Woolly Thyme - Thymus pseudolanuginosus

I love this thyme! The tiny leaves are furry and gray-green on subtle pink stems bring a classy look to the miniature garden bed. It's fun to pick-up that same gray-green color somewhere else in the garden design with another tree or shrub. 

Woolly Thyme is terrific along a pathway or at the edge of the miniature patio, or plant to trail down the edge of a pot or rock wall.

Divide in spring or the fall every 2 to 3 years to keep it fresh-looking. Light pink flowers in mid summer is just too pretty against the gray-green foliage.

Trim it back from your wee patios or pathways by "feathering" the line of cut. Cutting the stems all at once looks too abrupt in the mini garden.
