Learn how to select, grow, and maintain fragrant lawn replacement plants for your garden.
Suitable fragrant lawn alternatives depend on your climate, sunlight, soil, and foot-traffic requirements. Creeping thyme is one option for sunny, well-drained areas with light foot traffic. Other ground covers may be more suitable for shade or different growing conditions. Confirm the plant species before choosing seeds for your lawn.
Some low-growing ground covers tolerate occasional light foot traffic, but not all are suitable for frequently used walkways or play areas. Select a species specifically recommended for the expected traffic level. Stepping stones or designated paths can help protect delicate plants.
Remove existing weeds, prepare a suitable seedbed, and sow the seeds according to the identified species' instructions. Maintain appropriate soil moisture during germination and early growth. Avoid heavy foot traffic until the ground cover is established, and control weeds while the plants spread. Germination time and planting methods vary by species.
