Thymus pseudolanuginosus, commonly known as woolly thyme, is a versatile, low-growing perennial that forms a dense, fuzzy carpet of silver-gray foliage. Reaching only a few inches in height, its creeping stems root as they spread, making it an exceptional choice for filling gaps between stepping stones or cascading over rock walls. This drought-tolerant ground cover thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, producing tiny, pale pink flowers in summer that attract pollinators while remaining resistant to deer and light foot traffic.
