    Dense congested growth makes this upright plant look like a whimsical green rock!; excellent miniature garden or rock garden choice. S/M

    Tiny, tiny, tiny dwarf version of this evergreen shrublet, rising to only 6". The rounded dark leaves are tightly arranged into a pagoda-like effect. Need I say bonsai? Sun to shade with regular summer water. USDA zone 8.

    By: Cistus Nursery

    Incredibly compact (almost solid) evergreen shrublet, owing to its tiny, curved, leathery leaves absolutely cram-packed onto occluded branches. Curious and cute! What form it eventually takes is part of the slow-motion adventure. It would be perfect as part of a mini-landscape in a trough or as a bonsai. 10" T x 6" W Minimum temperature: -10 °F

    This is a new, slow-growing miniature Euonymus with tiny red-green leaves that have a slight white variegation. Reaching only 1' tall and 8' wide at maturity, this would make a great little trough or rock garden plant.
