Make sure the soil is well-drained, as thyme does not tolerate excess moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Once the seedlings are well established, space them 20 to 30 cm apart to allow good growth of the ground cover. \u003cem\u003eMagic Carpet\u003c\/em\u003e Thyme prefers sunny locations, although it can tolerate light shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e Maintenance and advice:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003eMagic Carpet\u003c\/em\u003e Thyme is very easy to care for.
