I styled this wild Thyme Bonsai (from Sicily) — here's how it went
At a bonsai market, a trader had something I couldn't walk past — a rugged, characterful Thyme bonsai sourced from Sicily. I knew the risks. Thyme like this thrives in hot, dry Mediterranean conditions, and Western Europe is anything but that. I bought it anyway.
This is the honest story of what happened next.
