Thymus citriodorus variegata is a showpiece of functional beauty in any garden, effortlessly living its dual life as both a highly ornamental plant and a practical culinary herb. Commonly known as Variegated Lemon Thyme, this perennial herb is a vibrant delight with its gold-speckled, green leaves that serve as a dramatic canvas for its pale pink to lavender blossoms. This strong performer stands tall at up to 12 inches in height and flaunts an elegant form from full sun to partial shade. As hardy as it is striking, the plant requests only moderate water usage alongside well-drained soil to thrive.
