We have some creeping thyme in our yard that we planted 6-7 years ago for decorative purposes. It has slowly been taking over our yard, managing to even replace the grass.
So far it has taken over 7-8 feet from the wall we planted it on, and there are a few random patches where it is taking over grass elsewhere in our yard.
I can't speak to its use in a garden, but I'm probably going to divide and spread it around since it has done a great job at preventing the weeds like thistle that we get every year.
(and it doesn't need to be trimmed like grass does!)
It's never too late to start gardening, and even the smallest project is worthwhile.
