Description: THYME RED Botanical Name: Thymus Satureioides Description: The Thyme plant is an evergreen perennial shrub that grows up to 45 cm (18 inches) in height. It has a woody root system, a multi-branched stem, small elliptical greenish gray aromatic leaves and pale purple or white flowers. Thyme is derived from the Greek word 'thymos' that means 'perfume'. White Thyme can also be derived from this species if the Red Thyme is further distilled; nonetheless, White Thyme is more commonly derived from the Thymus Zygis species. Color: Pale yellow to reddish yellow clear liquid.

Thyme Oil can assist with nervous complaints, respiratory problems, poor circulation and problems of the digestive system. It should also be noted that in cool to cold conditions, the active ingredient Thymol may crystallize. The more thymol present, the greater it’s propensity for altering states.
