I just paid $1.99 for thyme for a recipe, and I thought, how stupid, I can grow this!!! So, I bought a plant for $1.99. Your video is motivating to me to get going on planting it before it dies!! Ok, I got it, good drainage, sun, don't overwater.

I always champ if there are any thyme or savory spices in my food. So palatable.

@simonk512 no not at all it depends on what country you came from

@Bdiddly1 pronouncing iraq like eyeraq is a foolish mistake and misunderstanding of how to pronounce the word, pronouncing herb like Herb instead of like Erb is like pronouncing opossum like Opossum instead of possom, or know like Know not know, its a simple mistake by people who haven't learned that the H is silent

@simonk512 -its not mate,i have been all over the place&its only yanks that say it&maybe canadians too.

@simonk512 -mate im from scotland&we do talk a tad different but i have heard english,irish,welsh say herbs with the h,its just like bush calling iraq eyeraq,i think you americans just make this stuff up to make your erbs sound more interesting than our herbs(the right way!),you say tomayto i say tomata!lol

@Bdiddly1 the h is silent everywhere
