Information about thyme. Thyme is from the mint family. It is an evergreen plant and grows in bushes or shrubs. It has either pink or purple flowers and greyish, green, fuzzy leaves. It is very drought-tolerant and so grows easily in the dry soils of the desert. It is also grown in other countries due to its spice and flavor.
