Do you know if the dogs eat the thyme, will there be recpercussions?

No, I don't know. It's something you should look into before you plant it.

When I was dreaming over the seed catalogs in February, I saw a really wonderful thyme that blooms a hot pink. I reall covet that stuff, but I'm not spending any more money on plants. I already have MORE than I can care for the way it should be done. I simply do not need MORE work. I need LESS work.

I am putting green pepper plants in between my flowers and shrubs. Ans I am planting a patio tomato - I am sick of not having fresh vegetables that don't cost $5.00/lb.

I am so spoiled from having a vegetable garden while growing up, that I really miss it now. Mr HOB is afraid the squirrels will eat the peppers. I don't think they like them.

Well, what I found was two contradicting articles on thyme. (BTW, it is spellled various ways - I was not correcting you, I just have always spelled it with an "h".)

One article talks about essential oils and it being deadly to dogs in that form, the other talkss about dog behavior and eating habits where dogs fed dry food laced with thyme actually liked it.

I'm calling my vet....
