Thymus vulgaris
The leaves of Summer Thyme are small, gray/green and incredibly aromatic. This variety thrives in warm weather. In Summer delicate tiny lilac flowers appear and bring butterflies and other pollinators to the garden. It is a French type and much sweeter than English thyme and has a slightly more pungent almost spicy foliage. I find it indispensable in French cooking. There is almost no stew, soup, or ragout that does not call for a pinch or two. Hardy Zones 4-8
