About this design

Some puns earn a groan. This one is simply correct: time in the garden really is thyme well spent. It's for herb growers, kitchen gardeners and anyone who smiles at a good plant pun.

A hand-drawn thyme sprig, tiny paired leaves branching off a central stem in two greens, sits in the middle of a round badge over a pale cream sunburst. “THYME WELL SPENT” rings the top in deep green and “IN THE GARDEN” curves below in terracotta. It's earthy and gentle, more garden center than gag gift.

Who it's for

A mom with a windowsill herb box, a grandmother who cooks with what she grows, or a garden club friend would all enjoy it. Consider it for Mother's Day, a spring birthday or a housewarming with a new yard.

Fabric and fit

Soft, midweight unisex tee in ring-spun cotton (heather colors are a cotton and polyester blend). Relaxed classic fit with the design printed on the front.

Care

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Don't iron the print.
