| creeping thyme, particularly the smallest leaf variety, does well in my growing zone; not sure how it would do in zone 4.

| I have creeping Thyme Serpyllum in between my flagstones and they do well in Z4 NH: one blooms white,the other a lavender...some that have seeded are a pale pink. They seed into nooks and crannies and they can be walked on; good sun exposure and drainage are required. |

| How about Florida? I love the look of plants between the flagstones, but it gets really hot here in the summer. The folks at my local nursery hadn't even heard of creeping thyme. Any deep southerners tried this? --Stacy |
