Description
This image displays the distinctive spiny burr of Button Burweed (*Soliva sessilis*), a low-growing annual herbaceous plant, not a bonsai specimen. It is characterized by its finely dissected leaves and the sharp, button-like seed heads that can be a nuisance in lawns. This particular specimen is clearly in its fruiting stage.
