making a whole video about something you KNOW WRONG... stupid lady, thyme is my favorite herb, this is OREGANO, you should rename or delete your video, stop going out in the garden but go back in and wash the damn dishes. on your spare time, you might spot "thymus vulgaris" on the internet and finally discover what it really was..

@nosuchthingasauserna i dont want to argue with people that are from the other side of the world and have no clue what they talk about. i live in crete, i see all the "mediterranean" herbs you can talk about from my seat right now. besides the fields around my house, i also have both herbs in my garden and i eat them since i was born. the plant is NOT thymus vulgaris (thyme) the plant in the video is OREGANO. they are both used the same way. Search on google thymus vulgaris

@BOBLOL00 That's creeping thyme.  It starts off green and turns reddish.

@fuldk I know and like she really gardens with those nails!

@BOBLOL00 I assure you that it is thyme...obviously you don't know the difference.

What a waste of 1.54. You did not talk about how to grow it. What soil. How much sun. How much water. This was lousy. Your title was misleading and you ramble with out saying anything.
