Description
This specimen displays the distinctive pendulous catkins of the Coast silk tassel, a broadleaf evergreen shrub. The image focuses on the flowering branches and foliage, making it impossible to assess the overall bonsai form, trunk, or container. The style is an arbitrary choice due to the lack of a full tree image.
