Mother of thyme/creeping thyme

So i really struggle with lawn up keep and because of my m.e i don't have the energy to cut it regularly. My lawn is also mainly moss and weeds rather than grass.

Soon a fence will be replacing a hedge on the right side of my garden allowing me to add a flower bed. I will also be redoing my garden path and adding a lavender hedge either side of the path.

This means the right side of the path will have quite a small lawn area left and i was considering replacing it with creeping thyme

I have read it doesn't need regular mowing so would be much better suited to my illness but i would like to know if anyone has any experience of maintaing a creeping thyme lawn.

I would love to know of the positives and negatives and what is involved in the upkeep

Also if anyone has any other suggestions that would work and are really easy to look after that would be great. Minimal effort n very hardy are best for me but I'm not interested in artificial grass.

 

I forgot to add I would also love to hear from anyone if they have a camomile lawn as well as I am also considering that

I'm tempted to do a mix of camomile and creeping thyme apparently together they create a lemony scent

so yeh if anyone has experience of either i would really appreciate your thoughts

 

Thank you so much jwk

My soil isnt rich it wont have been fed for years as previous owners didnt do anything


My garden is dead south facing so the lawn gets constant sun and the grass tends to go yellow in the summer and the moss that is the main part of the lawn is always yellow and dead looking

Also there will be minimal walking on it as its just me and the cats

What is the species of camomile you have as i would prefer a flowing one?

 

Thank you
