UPDATE Five Stars - UPDATE June 2022 - Last year I was very unhappy (see my 2021 complaint below). This year I noticed beautiful, large patches of thyme. It took an entire season to establish (I live in MN). Wish I had known before I left a negative review. Prepare the area to be planted and be patient. I planted two bags of seeds in a freshly tilled area after the last freeze. Was excited when I saw groups of plants pushing through the soil. All turned out to be clover. Not a single thyme seed germinated. Lots of clover though. Almost as if it was clover that was sown. 40,000 seeds without a single thyme plant. What are the odds? Review: This is NOT purple creeping thyme - The seeds I received did grow a variety of thyme, and it does spread, but it also gets taller than expected and has white flowers, not purple. It has to be at least 8 in tall, I cut it shorter periodically and it survives this well. Now that it's a few years old I noticed it's getting "woody" stems near the bottom, it almost forms a net of stems, if I cut it back significantly I see that it's only in the ground in the areas I originally planted the seed pod. I'm happy enough with it bc it worked as a needed ground cover, but I feel deceived/disappointed it is not the plant pictured. ## Features - Ground Cover - Wild Creeping Thyme is a great choice to cover larger areas in the garden. It is especially sought after for populating rock gardens as well. - Perennial Flowers - Thyme is categorized as a perennial flowering plant. The plants develop a deep root system which allows them to return the year after they initially grow. - Easy to Establish - Simply toss the seed down to the surface of the soil and give them a good watering each day. Before you know it the tiny sprouts will be appearing all over the garden. - Smells Great - Thyme is a very sought after herb due to its strong scent. If the leaves and stems are crushed, the smell of Thyme can deter mosquitos. - Quality - All Thyme seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture. - Quantity - Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored. - Packets - Each seed packet displays an artful illustration of the variety to be grown, as well as detailed seed sowing information on the reverse side. They measure 3.25" wide by 4.50" tall. - Promise - Seed Needs will never knowingly supply GMO based seed products. The vast majority of our seeds are open pollinated & heirloom, with the exception of a few hybrids. - Germination - Seed Needs packets contain some of the freshest seed available. Direct from the growers. If sown correctly, you will begin seeing results in only a matter of days. - Freshness - All Thyme seeds are packaged in tear resistant and moisture resistant packaging. This keeps the seeds a whole lot fresher than the competitions selection! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002LU9OG8 | | Best Sellers Rank | #35,437 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #213 in Herb Plants & Seeds | | Brand | Seed Needs | | Brand Name | Seed Needs | | Color | purple | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 2,133 Reviews | | Expected Blooming Period | Summer | | Expected Planting Period | Summer | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Manufacturer | Seed Needs | | Material Feature | GMO Free | | Material Features | GMO Free | | Moisture Needs | Moderate Watering | | Number of Pieces | 20000 | | Other Special Features of the Product | heirloom | | Plant or Animal Product Type | Flower | | Soil Type | Sandy Soil | | Special Feature | heirloom | | Sunlight Exposure | Full Sun | | UPC | 682962473001 | | USDA Hardiness Zone | 3 | | Unit Count | 40000 Count | ## Product Details - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Outdoor - **Brand:** Seed Needs - **Material Feature:** GMO Free - **Color:** purple - **Special Feature:** heirloom - **Expected Blooming Period:** Summer - **Sunlight Exposure:** Full Sun - **Unit Count:** 40000 Count - **Expected Planting Period:** Summer - **USDA Hardiness Zone:** 3 ## Images ![Seed Needs Wild Creeping Thyme Seeds to Plant Groundcover Flowers 2 Packs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91zo24hhuCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 40,000 seeds planted without a single thyme appearance.

I started these seeds in my AeroGarden; and then transplanted them to a bare, sunny spot in our yard. Slow grower, takes about 8-10 weeks to get a good plug though, so start early before last frost. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/72731846-seed-needs-wild-creeping-thyme-seeds-to-plant-groundcover-flowers](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/72731846-seed-needs-wild-creeping-thyme-seeds-to-plant-groundcover-flowers) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
