Here in Trinidad we call it Big Leaf Thyme, Broad Leaf Thyme, or Spanish Thyme. This thing grows like a weed. I have cut it back numerous times and still it wants to take over the world 🤣 Even just tossing the scraps on a heap the pieces will grow. No need for water prop. Just stick it in any soil. Delicious as a seasoning. Have yet to try it for medicinal purposes. Happy gardening!
