Choose the hottest and driest spot possible in full sun for this interesting herb, where its specific fragrance with notes of marjoram and eucalyptus will be able to fully develop. The key to long-term success is the right soil structure – thyme literally requires poor, sandy, and very well-draining soil. Heavy and waterlogged soil would inevitably cause rapid root rot. Plant the seedlings at a distance of approximately 25 centimeters from each other, which corresponds to about 16 plants per square meter. This spacing will certainly ensure sufficient air circulation around the plants, reliably preventing the leaves from steaming in the dense thirty-centimeter clump. After transplanting to the flowerbed, thyme requires moderate watering only until it is fully rooted. Once established in its new location, it becomes a highly drought-tolerant plant that can handle even longer periods without rain. You don't have to worry about fertilizing at all. Given its natural origins in the harsh conditions of southern Europe, fertilizing actually harms the plant. In poor soil, it will maintain a compact shape and a much more intense aroma. During the season, you will also be pleased by the fact that this species suffers from absolutely no diseases and naturally repels common garden pests. The only regular visitors will thus be bees and other beneficial pollinators, reliably attracted in May and June by the tiny white pompom-like flowers. To help the plant maintain a nice and dense shape, we recommend a light pruning after blooming. Simply trim the faded stems to encourage the formation of new shoots and prevent the central part of the clump from becoming woody. Furthermore, you can dry the cut flowers and use them to scent your home. Approaching winter requires some preparation, as this species only tolerates temperatures dropping down to -12 °C. In colder areas or during stronger frosts, it is essential to cover the plant, preferably with light pine branches. Protection against winter dampness, which is far more dangerous to thyme than the frost itself, is also crucial. Thyme Pompom is very well suited for growing in containers and planters on balconies or sunny terraces. If you opt for this popular and highly decorative variant, it is important to follow a few basic and easy rules to achieve the best possible growing results. Drainage layer: Always place coarse gravel or expanded clay at the bottom of each pot for immediate drainage of excess rainwater and irrigation water. Substrate: Always thoroughly lighten regular garden soil with a large amount of clean sand before planting. Watering: Water the plant thoughtfully and always only when the substrate in the container is demonstrably and completely dry. Overwintering: Carefully wrap the container in bubble wrap before frosts arrive and cleverly place it under a roof, out of reach of falling snow and winter rains.
