Thyme citriodorus ‘Doone Valley’ is a low-growing, evergreen herb valued for its fragrant lemon scent and attractive variegated foliage. The small green leaves are edged in gold, often developing pink tinges in cooler weather, giving year-round interest.
Ideal for edging, gravel gardens, rockeries, and containers, this creeping thyme forms a neat mat and produces small pink flowers in summer that attract pollinators. A practical choice for both ornamental planting and culinary use.
