Description
This image displays a wild plant identified as Durango Root, not a cultivated bonsai specimen. It exhibits an upright growth habit with deeply lobed, serrated green leaves and small, inconspicuous greenish-yellow flowers along its herbaceous stems. While not a bonsai, its natural form could be conceptually adapted to an informal-upright style if it were a woody species suitable for training.
