Edible Herb

Question

Last year I planted an herb called “Highland Creme” Thymus. It came up again this year. I’m wondering if this is just a floral herb or is it also edible. Please tell me how it is used, if it is. It is planted in a raised bed with peonies, mums and chamomile right now, but I can move it. Thank you so much for any advice.

Answer 1

All thymes are edible, though the creeping varieties like this one are more often used as ornamental plantings in rock gardens, border edgings or creeping in-between flagstone pavers.
