English Thyme Plants for Sale 

English thyme (Thymus vulgaris) is a versatile and aromatic perennial herb prized by gardeners and chefs. This delightful plant can be grown indoors and requires only basic care to thrive. Its low-maintenance qualities, attractive appearance, and culinary uses make it a must for any garden. 

English thyme is one of the herbs we proudly offer at The Growers Exchange. Read on to learn more about this commonly used culinary herb. 

The English Thyme Plant: Appearance and Characteristics

English Thyme is a small, low-growing shrub that typically reaches a height of 6 to 12 inches, with some varieties growing up to 18 inches tall. It spreads to a width of about 12 to 18 inches.  

English thyme's woody stems are lined with tiny, oval-shaped leaves, which are a lush green in the spring and summer. While some varieties might show a slight color shift toward a deeper shade in colder months, English Thyme is generally considered evergreen, maintaining its green color year-round, especially in warmer climates. During the summer, it produces delicate flowers in shades of pale purple, pink, or even white, adding a splash of color and attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies to your garden.

English Thyme: Origins and History 

Native to the Mediterranean region, thyme has been cherished for its culinary, medicinal, and aromatic properties for millennia. Ancient Egyptians used thyme in their embalming process, while the Greeks burned it as incense in temples, believing it to be a source of courage. Romans also valued thyme, using it to purify their homes and adding it to their baths for its refreshing scent.

In medieval Europe, thyme symbolized bravery, often given to knights before battle. It was also a key ingredient in many traditional medicines, believed to ward off disease and promote longevity. The herb's resilience and versatility helped it spread across the continent. Due to the Roman expansion, it eventually made its way to England, where it became a beloved garden staple.

English Thyme Plant Care: Growing Tips

Whether you're a novice gardener or a seasoned horticulturist, growing English Thyme is a rewarding experience. This hardy perennial is known for its ease of care and ability to thrive in various conditions. Here are some tips to help you cultivate this versatile herb:

  • Soil: English thyme thrives in well-drained soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. To ensure optimal drainage, consider adding sand or gravel to your garden bed or potting mix.

  • Light: English thyme loves full sun and requires at least six to eight hours of sunlight daily. If you're growing thyme indoors, place it near a south-facing window or under grow lights.

  • Watering: Once established, English thyme is drought-tolerant. Water the plants deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as this could lead to root rot.

  • Pruning: Regular pruning helps keep your English thyme plants healthy and encourages bushy growth. Trim the stems back after the last frost in spring and again after flowering to maintain a compact shape.

  • Harvesting: Harvest thyme by snipping off the top five to six inches of the stems. It's best to harvest in the morning after the dew has dried.

  • Pest and Disease Management: English Thyme is generally resistant to pests and diseases, making it a low-maintenance addition to your garden. However, watch out for root rot in poorly drained soils and fungal diseases if the plants are too crowded. Aphids and spider mites can occasionally be an issue. You can treat them with a mild insecticidal soap or use a strong water spray to dislodge them.

English Thyme: Uses and Benefits

English thyme is a staple in many kitchens worldwide. Its robust, earthy flavor with hints of mint and lemon enhances various dishes. You can use fresh or dried English thyme leaves to season meats, poultry, and fish. It's also a fantastic addition to soups, stews, sauces, and marinades. English thyme pairs wonderfully with other Mediterranean herbs like rosemary, oregano, and basil. It is an essential component in herb blends like bouquet garni. 

Historically, thyme has been used for its medicinal properties. It contains thymol, an essential oil with antiseptic, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. Thyme tea is a traditional remedy for respiratory issues, aiding in the relief of coughs, bronchitis, and congestion.

The pleasant aroma of English thyme makes it an excellent choice for potpourris and sachets, adding a refreshing scent to your home. Meanwhile, its lovely small flowers, compact growth habit, and attractive foliage also make it an ideal choice for edging, rock gardens, and container planting.

Stunning Storytelling
Format: Kindle
Excellent. I read The Help on a whim all those years ago and was spellbound by the author's ability to weave a complex story across multiple narrators. When I'd heard that her second novel was coming out, I added it to my library wishlist as fast as I could. Then, the second I got word it was available, I couldn't help but immediately dive in... and, because her first novel made such an impression upon me, I had so much trust in the author's ability to deliver a story that I hadn't even bothered to read the blurb. Going in blind into the Calamity Club was a discovery! I was charmed, entertained, amused, and once again, spellbound by Stockett's ability to shift between narrators. One, a somewhat sheltered but very bright and kindhearted woman Birdie. And the other, a charming and very intelligent 11-year-old seemingly orphaned girl, Meg. But beyond this, her ability to weave together a story featuring the fringes of society, giving people -- women, of various walks of life -- a voice in an era where women might have the vote, but are still subjected to a variety of society norms, laws, and double standards, is still very compelling. I adored Meg, and I was so invested in seeing how things would turn out for her. And the strong female cast that Stockett features here only adds to the story's strengths. Having read a few comments here on length, while I agree the story is a little long and the try-fail cycle of getting the underground business off the ground may feel pointless for some, it didn't bother me and only served to showcase the strength of the women. There were so many characters in this book that one could examine closer, from the aching pain of Rory's story to the quiet pain of the accidental loss of someone struggling with emotional struggles and alcoholism to the desperation of destitution, and the lengths one might go just to survive. There's so much within these pages to mine and consider, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My only critique is that I felt it ended so abruptly! I wanted just one further chapter, a glimpse of Meg's future... Still: an excellent read, and the Acknowledgements/Author's Note on the research involved in this one was one that made me think about how far we've come... and the direction of where we might go in the future.

Un-Putdown-Able
Format: Kindle
Wonderful book! It’s intriguing, heartfelt and funny as hell. There may be a few loose ends they are too easily wrapped up but honestly, it doesn’t detract from the overall impact of the book. I have to say that the story is enhanced by the Audible version, which is something I rarely say because I usually need to see the words in print. But the two readers of the book are superb and add a lot of depth to the characters. Honestly, if there’s a movie made of this book, I will probably be disappointed in the actors who portray the characters of Birdie and Meg because they won’t be as good as Jenna Lamia and January Lavoy who narrated this book for Audible.

Trying times in Oxford Mississippi in 1933
Format: Kindle
The Calamity Club features a cast of strong women and several weak men. The official charitable women are not charitable and the unofficial ones are courageous and are filled with good will. Stockett weaves a long tale of poverty, desperation, determination and sisterly love. Only two sets of sisters are blood related but those who are not, bond by working together for a common purpose. Stockett serves up humor and pathos in equal measure with a dash or two of realism. Her character development makes The Calamity Club well worth reading Like The Help, a screenplay should be forthcoming.

So Good!
Format: Hardcover
Some parts of this are reminiscent of The Help, but it is a brand new story. Even though it appears to be a LONG book (650 pages), it goes fast and is hard to put down. The story takes place in Mississippi in the 1930's. 24 year old Birdie travels to see her married sister in Oxford for the purpose of getting some financial help for her family. Her sister Frances married into a seemingly wealthy family, which for reasons that soon become clear, has now fallen on hard times. Eleven year old Meg lives in an orphanage and is treated badly by the volunteers that staff it. If her mom isn't going to come back and get her, then she wants to be adopted as soon as possible, but most people want babies, not older children. Charlie turns up at the house where Birdie is staying with her sister's family. She's bright and helpful, but what's her real story? How are they all connected? This story is at times hilarious and at other times heartbreaking. It has its share of villains, but most of the characters are likeable and you want them to succeed. Just HOW they succeed is the heart of the book, and I won't tell you and spoil the surprise. This is well worth reading, though, and I strongly recommend it.

Outstanding book
Format: Kindle
I loved this book so much that I'm sad that I've finished it. The story is fascinating, the characters well developed and the themes were important and heart wrenching. This is definitely one of the best books I ever read. I can't summarize the story without spoilers and I would not want to deny you the opportunity to enjoy the unfolding of this beautiful story. This is a book I will not forget and I look forward to Kathryn Society's next wonderful book. She is a tremendous author. Thank you Kathryn for the gift of this book!
