Thymus citriodorus Variegata Details

Thymus citriodorus Variegata, commonly known as Variegated Lemon Thyme, is an herbaceous perennial grown for both its foliage and flowers. The leaves on this evergreen are lemon scented, small, and variegated dark green and cream. Through summer it produces lovely pink flowers which transform the plant and are great for attracting butterflies and the like. Thymus citriodorus Variegata grows to about 20 cm tall and 40 cm wide, performing best when planted on a well-drained site in full sun or partial shade. Variegated Lemon Thyme is commonly included in the herb garden, grown as an annual, used in cottage gardens, grown in a container, or mass planted for a spectacular display.
