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.

Tough enough for Pitt mix
Color: Red, Pattern Name: Roses
Buy it! Boy or girl who cares it’s a rose! Haven’t found a tough chew toy for a while. My Pitt mix has been going at it for three days with a tiny chunk off and that’s all. She pants while chewing then passes out!

Non aggressive chewer destroyed in 10 mins
Color: Light Pink, Pattern Name: Roses
Unfortunately this is definitely not for aggressive chewers. We had to throw it away after 10 mins and it was given to a small dog. She did absolutely love it, but it shouldn't have shredder the toy like she did. The spikes were literally falling off. I don't know if we just got a defective one, but I'm definitely not happy with this purchase.

Depends on the KIND of chew
Color: Red, Pattern Name: Roses
I’ve given this to my fosters and most love it and keep it for a LONG time. Now I have a Pibble who figured out how to pibble tiny bits of plastic instead of just chomping.

Dogs Love!
Color: Real Bacon&Beef
My dogs love these. I originally had ordered one but the 3 dogs kept stealing it from each other so I had to buy more. I purchased 2, 2 packs. Highly recommend if you have some chewers. Great quality for the price. They do seem to last a while as well. Highly recommend.
