INCI: Thymus Vulgaris Seed

Umuthi Thyme (Winter Herb) Seeds grow hardy, fragrant plants with small, savoury leaves that hold their flavour in cooking. This perennial prefers full sun and very well-drained, lean soils, and stays compact in beds, rockeries and pots. A reliable kitchen standby for roasts, vegetables and stocks, with sprigs that dry well for the pantry.

♡ Why we love it: Tough, drought-leaning once established and richly aromatic. Easy to tuck into sunny spots and containers, and the flavour stands up to long cooking.

Size: 150 Seeds.

  • Fresh or dried leaves for roasts, pan sauces, soups and breads
  • Infuse in oil, butter or vinegar
  • Neat edging plant for herb beds, pots and rock gardens
  • Perennial herb for multi-season harvests
  • Compact growth habit suited to small spaces
  • Strong, classic thyme flavour that handles heat
  • When to sow: After last frost
  • Position: Full sun; low-fertility, well-draining sandy or rocky soil
  • Sowing: Sow 3 mm deep; space 20-30 cm apart with 30-45 cm between rows

  • Germination: 14-28 days in suitable temperatures
  • Harvest: 60-90 days; snip stems as needed. Regular light picking encourages bushy growth
