The most used is the Lamiaceae family with the species Th. vulgaris with hight consumption. The study of botanical characters of International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV), agronomic (installation condition of culture) and biochemical (essential oil, total phenols and flavonoids) of this plant demonstrates their economic and therapeutic interest. According to the results, it was found that the installation of thyme culture is very important, and knowledge of installation conditions and botanical characteristics (as UPOV   recommendations), are very important for better adapt this beneficial culture through their therapeutic and commercial value at the Skikda region.
