Botanical Name: Thymus nummularis
Pizza thyme sometimes known as Italian thyme is a perennial plant with deep green oval shaped leaves and pink flowers in spring /summer. It reaches a height of around 20cm and has a strong flavour and scent of thyme and oregano.
The leaves can be used in any recipe calling for thyme, its strong flavour making it suitable for pizza and pasta. Use in stuffing, soups and sprinkle over baked vegetables. Nice stirred through cooked mushrooms and omelettes or sprinkled on sardines.
In the garden thyme grows well as a companion to cabbage, onions, roses and salad burnet.
Pizza thyme prefers well drained soil in an open sunny position. Suitable for a neutral to slightly alkaline soil and will grow happily in a rock garden. Thyme does not like wet feet and will grow well in a container on a sunny windowsill or veranda. Trim the plant back by about a third after flowering.

AustraliaI had an amazing experience with Mudbrick Herb Cottage and will buy from them again. The herbs arrive fast, super healthy and sun hardened ready to plant. It was so much fun unwrapping my herbs. Thanks so much guys! you do an awesome job.
AustraliaVery good, very prompt, good attention to detail, healthy plants, useful follow-up. Thank you!
AustraliaI bought this pizza thyme together with several other herbs. Previously I shopped in-store (which is the most delightful place to visit) but this time I bought them online. They arrived in good condition and they've been in the ground now - in my new "edible garden" bed for a few weeks and they are growing well. I love the variety of herbs available, and it is overall a lovely local business that I feel so happy to support.
