Throne of Thyme

Since the age of kings, the lawn has been associated with leisure. Today the demands of routine yard work can make many lawn-owners feel more like feudal slaves.

Throne of Thyme reflects this enslavement – the groundcover consuming the leisure space – at the same time it suggests a route to freedom. Replace your turf grass with low-maintenance and sweet-smelling clover and thyme.
