Thyme Plant Bee Gourdon: Scientific Name:
Thyme sarriette
Watching a bee busy at work on this flowering Thyme plant at the La Source Parfumee Gardens in Gourdon, France is an intriguing way to spend some time. As soon as the Thyme plant begins to blossom, the bee heads directly towards the flowers to start on his busy day.
The Thyme plant grows to its maximum potential in well-drained soil and the direct heat of the sun. The vast amount of sunlight in Gourdon, France is one reason this particular herb plant flourishes at the La Source Parfumee gardens amongst many other culinary herb plants.
When the flowers of the Thyme plant begin to blossom into either white, pink or purple hues, the bee also joins in as the flowers carry a very important source of nectar. The leaves from the plant...
... can be harvested during the summer months but the ideal time is just before they begin to flower.
The Thyme plant has been around since long before the Medieval Ages and was once used for embalming, incense and other fascinating purposes. Today, it is still a world wide used plant for things such as cooking, perfumes and medicinal needs.
