From creeping thyme to sweet woodruff, these 10 flowering, low-maintenance plants are great for covering the bare ground under trees, backyard, front garden, or wherever you need to see a pop of color.
One of the biggest benefits of a Thyme lawn is that it is low-maintenance. You don’t have to mow it and from mid-May to mid-June the Thyme is in full bloom.
