Description

This specimen displays the characteristic short, flat, soft green needles of the Douglas-fir, arranged spirally on the branch. Several mature cones are visible, featuring distinctive three-pronged bracts protruding from each scale. The image focuses on the foliage and cones, not the overall tree structure, so specific bonsai characteristics like trunk and nebari are not discernible.
