Easy Care Tips for English Thyme

English Thyme is an organic herb that’s easy to cultivate! Thriving in full sun to partial shade, it prefers well-drained soil. After planting, water deeply, then sparingly during hot, dry spells to avoid overwatering. Lightly fertilize with a balanced fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and robust foliage.

Maintain adequate spacing of 12-15 inches between plants to accommodate its spread. This low-maintenance herb requires minimal pruning to retain its neat appearance. Harvest English Thyme by snipping off sprigs as needed throughout the growing season, promoting new growth and maintaining plant health. In colder climates, consider growing English Thyme as an annual or bringing it indoors during winter. However, in zones 5-9, where winters are milder, it remains evergreen, providing year-round beauty and culinary delight.
