Windowsill lemon thyme (Thymus × citriodorus) and to the right, basil. (Ocimum basilicum).
Lemon thyme truly has a lemon aroma and flavor. This photo doesn’t do the pretty thyme leaves justice. They are variegated with a yellow border on each little leaf with a green center. (See here for an accurately colored photo.) Apparently lemon thyme is supposed to be hardier than other thyme species and should do well during the winter. Not so in my case—R.I.P. thyme and basil. Until next year…
