So, I was listening to this fairly good, folk-ish song, sung by Rod Stewart, Wilde Mountain Thyme.
It goes:
Oh the summer time is gone And the leaves are sweetly turning And the wild mountain thyme Blooms across the purple heather Will you go, lassie. go
So, I says to myself, “Self, what’s purple heather look like?” Wouldn’t you know it? I didn’t know. So, a quick google images search, and here we are: picture of bloomin’ purple heather.
Hmm, so yes. It would be very nice to pick wild mountain thyme all among the purple heather.
