Doone Valley Thyme - Plant information

Size: Grows to approximately 10 cm tall with a spreading habit reaching up to 30 cm wide, forming a dense ground cover.

Position: Thrives best in full sun but tolerates light shade. Prefers well-drained soil with a neutral to alkaline pH. Ideal for rockeries, borders, and herb gardens.

Feeding etc: Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to support growth. Regular light pruning keeps the plant compact and healthy. Remove dead stems to improve air circulation.

Care: Water moderately during dry spells but avoid waterlogging. Trim lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth. Mulch in spring to protect roots and retain moisture.

	Starter Plant (Plug Plant) Plug Size: 2cm by 4cm. Our most popular size. This is often the most economical way of buying plants and is a great way to get a head start on the season. Generally this size is best to be potted up before planting out.
	Jumbo Plug Plug Size: 6cm by 7cm. A fantastic alternative to a 9cm pot and saves on plastic too. The plants in this size are well established and give you a head start. This size is perfect for planting straight into containers and baskets as well as the garden.
	9cm pot Pot size: 9cm by 9-10cm. This size hold some well established plants, some of which maybe around 1 year old. We sell most of our ranges in this size and most of the plants sold in this size, are established enough to be planted straight outside.
	13cm or 1 litre pot Pot size: 12-13cm by 12-15cm Currently our largest size of plant, with the exception of our planted containers. Many of our House Plants are available in this size, as well as some special collections and varieties.
