ThymeTurf is a turf-like groundcover system grown using ‘Magic Carpet’ Thymus serpyllum, a hardy creeping thyme known for its vibrant purple-lilac flowers and aromatic foliage. During summer bloom, ThymeTurf produces dense clusters of flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, adding ecological value to ornamental landscapes.
The product is grown in a specialized mat format that allows designers and contractors to install thyme as a finished groundcover rather than individual plugs, simplifying installation while delivering immediate visual impact.
ThymeTurf delivers a durable planting system that integrates naturally with hardscape designs.
ThymeTurf is grown as a dense planting of ‘Magic Carpet’ creeping thyme within a soil-less growing medium supported by a biodegradable fibre base. Unlike planting individual thyme plugs, the plants are established together during production as a cohesive vegetated mat.
This allows the product to be handled, transported, and installed as a stable planting unit without disturbing the plants.
Once installed, the thyme quickly roots into the underlying soil while the fibre base gradually biodegrades, allowing the planting to integrate naturally with the surrounding landscape. Immediate flowering groundcover is achieved at installation, supporting rapid establishment and long-term low-maintenance performance.

In the world of landscape design, success is measured not just by how a space looks on day one, but by how it performs over time. Increasingly, designers are seeking plant solutions that combine visual appeal, sustainability, and long-term client satisfaction.
