- I am a groundcover ideal for cascading over retaining walls, in borders & rockeries
- Fresh or dried my sprigs are a favoured ingredient in Mediterranean dishes
- I am a very hardy plant maintaining my lush look in a wide variety of conditions
- I am happy in most soils but prefer soils that are well drained
I am prostrate form of the popular perennial herb with highly fragrant evergreen needle-like leaves which are a key flavouring ingredient in many Mediterranean cuisines.
I produce an abundance of blue flowers from late winter through to summer. My blooms attract beneficial insects.
Hardy I am a good choice for both hot and cool climates tolerating light frosts and dry conditions.
I am associated with improved memory.
Sprigs of me are often worn on Anzac and Remembrance days.
I make a great ground cover particularly beside pathways where my aroma will be appreciated. My trailing form works looks great cascading over retaining walls, raised garden beds and pots.
