Cotoneaster microphyllus ‘Thyminifolius’

Thyme Leaf Cotoneaster is a charming evergreen featuring tiny, glossy green leaves and bright red berries on gracefully arching branches. Its fine texture and compact habit make it a perfect addition to miniature-themed gardens, where its small-scale foliage and berries create a natural, woodland-like aesthetic.

This versatile plant is equally well-suited for rock gardens, borders, and containers, offering year-round interest. When grafted onto a 12” standard, its branches can be trained upright to resemble tiny trees, adding a unique and sculptural element to small garden spaces. Low-maintenance and visually striking, Thyme Leaf Cotoneaster is an excellent choice for creative and space-conscious gardeners.

Many perennials and bonsai plants take on a 'winter look' that's different from their summer appearance. The colder temperatures and shorter days trigger seasonal changes, which are actually part of their natural cycle. Some plants need this winter break to bloom and perform their best when the growing season returns. While they might look semi-dormant until early spring, these cosmetic changes don’t impact their health at all.

Bonsai Basic Care: Hard

Watering: Bonsais require careful watering. The frequency depends on the species and the climate, but generally, the soil should be kept slightly moist. Check the soil daily, and water thoroughly when the top layer feels dry.

Light: Most bonsai trees prefer bright, indirect light. A few hours of direct sunlight early in the morning or late in the afternoon is beneficial, but a direct midday sun can be harmful, especially in hotter climates.

Soil/Drainage: To prevent water retention and root rot, use a well-draining bonsai-specific soil mix.

Temperature/Humidity: Depending on the species, bonsai trees can be kept indoors or outdoors. Indoor bonsais generally prefer temperatures between 60-75°F and benefit from increased humidity, which can be achieved through daily misting or humidity trays.

Feeding: Fertilize your bonsai regularly during the growing season. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every few weeks or as recommended for the specific type of tree.

Pruning/Training: Pruning is essential to maintaining the shape and health of a bonsai. Regular pruning of the roots and canopy is necessary. Training with wires can also shape branches and direct growth.

Repotting: Most bonsai trees require repotting every 2-5 years to prevent root crowding and replenish nutrients in the soil. This is best done in the spring.

General Tips: Regularly inspect for pests and diseases. Bonsai trees are susceptible to insect infestations and fungal infections, which should be treated promptly to keep the tree healthy.

Order & Shipping Info:
-Plants ship in a grower's pot, fully rooted.
-We ship every Monday and Tuesday (excluding holidays) to avoid weekend delays.
-Our photos show what you can expect, but each plant is unique and may look slightly different upon arrival.
-Minor damage during shipping is entirely normal and should be expected, especially in extreme summer or winter temperatures. Don’t worry—damaged foliage can be trimmed away and will not affect the plant's root system or overall health.
-Hold off on watering if the soil is still moist, and wait 2-4 weeks before repotting or fertilizing. This patience will help your plant adjust smoothly without going into shock.

Health
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Seed Oil
I recently started incorporating GuruNanda's Black Seed Oil into my daily routine, and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results! As someone who values natural remedies and holistic health practices, I've been searching for a high-quality black seed oil, and GuruNanda delivers exactly what I was looking for. First and foremost, the cold-pressed extraction method ensures that all the potent nutrients and compounds found in nigella sativa seeds are preserved, providing maximum benefits for my health and wellness. I appreciate knowing that I'm getting a pure and unadulterated product without any added fillers or artificial ingredients. One of the things I love most about this black seed oil is its versatility. Not only can it be taken orally for its numerous health benefits, but it can also be used topically for skincare and haircare purposes. I've been adding a few drops to my morning smoothies or salads for an added boost of nutrition, and I've noticed improvements in my overall well-being, including increased energy levels and a stronger immune system. Additionally, I've been using GuruNanda's Black Seed Oil as part of my skincare routine, and the results have been phenomenal. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties have helped to reduce redness and irritation, leaving my skin looking and feeling smoother and more radiant than ever before. Overall, I can't recommend GuruNanda's Black Seed Oil highly enough. It's a pure, potent, and multipurpose product that has quickly become a staple in my daily regimen. Whether you're looking to support your immune system, improve your skin health, or enhance your overall well-being, this black seed oil is definitely worth trying.

A Lifesaver for Dry Mouth, Without That Weird Aftertaste 👏
Size: 4.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
If you know, you know: dry mouth is not just an inconvenience, it’s downright uncomfortable. I’ve tried several brands over the years, but Biotène is the one that consistently keeps my mouth feeling fresh without that overpowering artificial mint or gritty texture. This formula is gentle but effective, no burning, no foamy overload, and no funky aftertaste. It’s also a huge win that it’s sulfate-free and doesn’t irritate my gums like some drugstore pastes do. The mint is subtle but refreshing, and my mouth actually feels hydrated afterward (which is wild to say about a toothpaste, but here we are). If you deal with dry mouth from medication, menopause, or just bad luck, this one’s worth every penny. ✨ Pro tip: Keep a travel size in your bag if you’re heading out for the day. Nothing ruins a coffee date like feeling like your tongue is made of sandpaper. 10/10 recommend.

Dry Mouth
Size: 4.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been diagnosed with Dry Mouth, what a problem this is! My dentist recommended toothpaste for dry mouth; I selected Biotene Fluoride toothpaste for daily use. I definitely use it at night before going to bed to help keep my mouth less dry. I also use Biotene mouth wash and other products that I'll rate another time. I love this toothpaste; I believe it's helpful for my diagnosis.

Biotène Fluoride Toothpaste for Dry Mouth Symptoms
Size: 4.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been using this toothpaste on and off for a few years ever since I got a dry mouth. It is very good and leaves your mouth feeling fresh. Unfortunately it doesn't get rid of your dry mouth.

Chemical free is important
Size: 4.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I don’t like doing fluoride, but I do know that some fluoride is important so this is the cleanest fluoride toothpaste I could find and I use it in conjunction with a non-fluoride toothpaste I have I love the flavor. I love the fact that it doesn’t have a lot of the bad chemicals in it.
