Thymus sibthorpii

Description

Thymus sibthorpii is a small shrub whose flower-bearing stems grow 10 to 20 (to 30) cm long and grow upright to ascending, lignified on the ground and are often branched. Most of the stems are short fluffy hair all around or rarely only on two sides. Creeping, non-flower-bearing stems are not formed. The leaves are usually 10 to 15 mm long and 3 to 5 mm wide. They are petiolate, elliptic-lanceolate, pointed, coriaceous and densely glandular. The side veins are clearly visible.
