How to Plant Orange Creeping Thyme Seeds
Planting Season:
Sow seeds in early spring after the last frost or start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost date for an earlier start.
Seed Preparation:
No pre-treatment is necessary, but lightly scarifying the seeds can help improve germination rates.
Planting Instructions:
- Depth: Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep in loose, well-drained soil.
- Spacing: Space seeds 8–12 inches apart, as the plant will spread and fill in over time.

Water and Care
- Watering Needs: Water regularly until established, then reduce watering as the plant becomes more drought-tolerant.
- Fertilizer: Fertilize sparingly with a balanced, organic fertilizer in the spring to promote healthy growth.
