Thymus Bressingham Pink

| Thymus 'Bressingham Pink' |
Lovely pale olive foliage and distinctive pink blooms adorn this
great little ground covering variety. Eventual spread can be up
to 3 feet (one metre) across, but that’s after several seasons
and it never gets more than 1” tall.
As usual, this type needs dry, lean soil. Given sandy soil, good
drainage such as on a rockery or rocky slope Bressingham Pink just
quietly goes about its business of layering the world in lovely
foliage and blooms. I have it planted around a rock step, which
it has almost succeeded in covering. In combination with T.
pseudolanuginosis, T. Magic
Carpet, T. coccineus and
T. albus, this makes the most fabulous
carpet imaginable. Grown in amongst pavers or as a lawn alternative
would be beautiful.
It will even put up with less than full sun; I have some growing
quite happily in afternoon shade. As long as the ground is dry and
warm, nothing bothers it.
