Comments: Thymus serpyllum Pink Chintz is also known as Creeping Thyme and Mother of Thyme. Love that aromatic foliage and small pink flowers. 'Pink Chintz' Thyme forms a dense mat of only 1 inches to 3 inches high to 24 inches across. Thyme attracts butterflies, is drought tolerant, deer resistant, rabbit resistant, and tolerates some foot traffic. Plants in 3.5 inch pots provide faster coverage than creeping thyme plugs.

Thyme repels cabbage worm, so is a fine companion plant for broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, collard, horseradish, kale, and kohlrabi. Thyme is also a fine companion plant for potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and strawberries.
