Thyme (Thymus vulgaris), a herb of the mint family commonly used in cooking, is believed to have medicinal properties beneficial to health. Commonly called garden thyme or common thyme, is a generally upright, woody-based perennial. With a taste that is spicier than oregano and a scent reminiscent of pine and camphor, thyme can be recognized by its tiny, sage-green leaves and thin but woody stalks. In early summer, the plant will blossom with pink or purple flowers which are highly attractive to bees. 500 seeds
