Organic Magic Carpet Thyme (Thymus serpyllum 'Magic Carpet') is a high-impact groundcover that lives up to its name. This vigorous variety forms a fast-spreading, low-profile mat of lemon-scented green foliage. In late spring and early summer, the entire plant disappears under a thick "carpet" of brilliant, glowing magenta-pink flowers, transforming paths and rockeries into a sea of vivid color.

As a versatile member of the Thymus genus, 'Magic Carpet' is as tough as it is beautiful. It is highly resistant to heat and drought, making it an excellent choice for stabilizing slopes or filling in large sunny gaps in the perennial border. The aromatic leaves are also edible, making this a perfect "multi-tasking" plant for the edible landscape. Why you’ll love it: Intense magenta-pink floral display, refreshing citrus-herb fragrance, and a vigorous habit that chokes out weeds.

Product Details: This Organic Magic Carpet Thyme is delivered as a robust 4-inch live plant in a nursery pot. It stays under 2 inches tall and thrives in full sun.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!

Please contact us, send a picture, and detail any damage, so that we can continue to improve our shipping process and make sure you receive the healthy plants you paid for.
