Some Herbs may be too tall for our standard packaging and will be trimmed to fit. This will not be detrimental to the plant but will mean that these herbs will flower later in the year.
The Blister packs used to protect our beautiful herbs during transit are made from 100% recycled plastic and can be recycled kerbside.
Thyme is grown the world over as it is such a versatile plant, not only is its foliage is attractive, the flowers are long-lasting and very pretty, and it is drought tolerant - an overall easy-care plant. On top of that it is one of the most useful herbs for the kitchen.
White-Flowered Creeping Thyme reaches a height of 5 cm and flowers in May and June it is very decorative with its small green aromatic leaves which are evergreen given the right conditions, this creeping thyme is suitable for planting in the rock garden, herb garden or the front of a border, or perhaps plant between pavers or at the edge of gravel paths as the aromatic leaves release a lovely scent when trodden on. White-Flowered Creeping Thyme likes a well-drained light soil, which should not be too rich in nutrients as this will only encourage the plant to grow 'leggy' and lose its compact shape, also ensure that the plant is cut back after flowering again to help maintain shape. Being a native of the Mediterranean it needs a place in full sun.
White-Flowered Creeping Thyme is an excellent herb for brightening up a herb garden as edging or as a feature plant, it is extensively used as a path thyme between flag stones and within turf. It is often found on rockeries as it is more decorative than culinary.
Our potted White-Flowered Creeping Thyme herb plants are generally available to buy online all year round.

Three very healthy, reasonably priced, plants arrived about 30 hours after I had ordered them. Admittedly I did place my online order at 7 am. They were carefully packaged and delivered with care. This all made the high delivery charge worth it. I hope to use Hooks Green Herbs again.
Service was excellent. Fine little plants arrived in good condition, perfectly packed, and remarkably quickly. Very pleasing
Quality of the plants I received was excellent and the packaging was perfect. Plus they arrived promptly. They’re now settling in nicely in the cracks between my paving slabs.
All the plants I ordered are all healthy and are doing well in the garden will be ordering more.
Healthy and lovely plant. Doing well.
This was my first order from this company and I was delighted with the product which arrived quickly, extremely well packaged and was in great condition. It is now in the garden and looking good.
Tried to order these plants with the online basket, but was unable to so sent an enquiry to the company. I was answered promptly and the problem was rectified so that I could order the number of plants that I wanted to.
