OVER

Thymus serpyllum, commonly known as wild thyme or creeping thyme, is a low-growing perennial subshrub in the Lamiaceae family. Native to Europe and North Africa, it thrives in temperate climates and is often used as ground cover due to its dense, mat-forming growth habit. It produces small, aromatic leaves and pink to purple flowers that attract pollinators. The plant undergoes a dormancy period during the winter months.

DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Wild thyme is relatively easy to care for. It prefers full sun and moderate temperatures. Water the plant when the soil is almost completely dry, and ensure it has good air circulation. It can tolerate a range of humidity levels but prefers moderate humidity. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth.
Bodem
Thymus serpyllum prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but thrives best in moderately fertile soil. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent root rot, and avoid waterlogged conditions.
Kunstmest
Fertilize wild thyme with a balanced fertilizer, such as 5-10-5, once in the spring. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Verpotten
Repot wild thyme every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its current pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.
Voortplanting
Propagate wild thyme through cuttings or division. Take cuttings in the spring or early summer, and root them in a well-draining soil mix. Alternatively, divide the plant in the spring by carefully separating the root ball and replanting the divisions.
Snoeien
Prune wild thyme after it finishes flowering to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or damaged stems, and trim back the plant to prevent it from becoming too woody.
Toxiciteit
Thymus serpyllum is non-toxic to pets and humans. It is safe to grow in gardens where pets and children are present.
Aanvullend
Wild thyme is not only a beautiful ground cover but also has culinary and medicinal uses. Its aromatic leaves can be used in cooking, and it has been traditionally used for its antiseptic and antifungal properties.
