Thymus polytrichus subsp. brittannicus 'Doone Valley'

Prostrate, regularly branched, leaves broadly ovate, with few cilia, glabrous, dark green, gold-variegated, most evident from autumn to spring. Flower heads about 15 mm wide, soon elongating, bracts conspicuous, flowers hermaphrodite, rose purple. Lemon-scented.

This distinctive cultivar is probably of hybrid origin.
