Micromeria pineolens is an endangered woody sub-shrub from the mint family, native to northwest Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands. It is a rare wild species rather than a common garden plant, so it is best grown in a sunny, dry, free-draining spot like other Mediterranean-type herbs.
Micromeria pineolens (tomillo del pinar, tomillón) is an endangered species of flowering plant in the Lamiaceae native to Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands. It is a woody sub-shrub, 30–70 cm in height, with hairy, yellowish-green leaves about 1.5 to 2 cm in length, and pink flowers.
