Lemon Thyme

Take 3–4 in tip cuttings in late spring or early summer, remove lower leaves, and insert into gritty, free-draining mix; roots develop in 2–3 weeks. Plant in full sun in sharply drained, lean, slightly alkaline soil, as lemon thyme rots in wet or rich conditions just like common thyme. Shear lightly after flowering each season to prevent woodiness and maintain a tidy mound of fragrant foliage. Harvest leafy sprigs at any time; the lemon-thyme combination flavor is prized in fish dishes, salad dressings, and desserts, and is excellent fresh or dried. Спосіб посадки: Розмноження живцюванням Відстань між рослинами: 9–12 дюймів Висота: 6–12 дюймів Дні до схожості: 14–28 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 18–24°C
