Thymus Doone Valley enchants with its delightful lemony scent and taste.  This plant is both edible and ornamental, creating a perfect, dense mat of tiny leaves.  The vibrant green foliage is beautifully highlighted with golden splashes, especially during colder nights, and is adorned with lavender-pink flowers in the summer.  
Doone Valley Thyme is perfect for planting between paving stones, on steps, or along the edges of paths – anywhere you can frequently enjoy its lemony aroma as you brush against or crush it. It can withstand light foot traffic while consistently releasing that wonderful fragrance.  Additionally, it thrives (and looks stunning) when cascading over the rim of a terracotta pot.
