Highland Cream
Thyme Highland Cream is a low-growing, mat-forming, evergreen shrub with oval to lance-shaped, dark-green leaves edged with cream. In late spring to early summer, it produces clusters of small, pale pink to white flowers that emit a lemon-scented fragrance. Typically reaching 2-4 inches in height and spreading up to 10-12 inches wide, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Hardy in zones 4-9, this drought-tolerant plant is ideal for rock gardens, between stepping stones, or as ground cover since it can handle being walked on.

How will my Perennials be shipped and delivered?
Timing matters when you are planting a successful garden. Your perennial will arrive in a one gallon nursery pot, and you can choose a delivery date that fits your region and schedule. For preorder items, the shipping timeframe is clearly noted on the product page so there are no surprises. This gives you full visibility and control from purchase to planting.
How do I know if I can grow a specific Perennial variety?
Choosing the right perennial does not have to be complicated. Start by making sure the plant’s hardiness zone matches your own so it can survive your climate. Then look at how much sunlight your planting area receives and choose a variety that fits those conditions. Each of our plant listings clearly shows whether a perennial prefers full sun, partial shade, or shade, so you can move forward with confidence and select a plant that will thrive in your garden.
