Everyday & Culinary Uses

Use Lemon Thyme with chicken, fish, vegetables, potatoes, soups, marinades, sauces, dressings, and herb butters. It also works beautifully in teas and other recipes where you want a light citrus-herb flavor.

Fall & Protected Growing

Lemon Thyme handles cooler conditions better than tropical herbs like basil, but young container plants still benefit from protection during severe cold. It can also be maintained in a greenhouse or other protected growing space for easier harvesting through cooler weather.

Quick Growing Tips

Provide full sun and well-draining soil. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings rather than keeping the roots constantly wet. Regular trimming encourages fuller growth.
