This charming miniature thyme forms a dense, low-growing mat of tiny, fragrant green leaves. 'Elfin' is prized for its tidy, ground-hugging habit — perfect for filling gaps between stepping stones, edging pathways, or adding softness to rock gardens. In early summer, it’s sprinkled with tiny pink-lavender blooms that attract pollinators. Drought-tolerant once established and thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. Deer resistant and easy to maintain.
