Description
This specimen, identified as Goosefoot violet, is an herbaceous perennial featuring a dense clump of deeply lobed, hairy leaves. It presents numerous bright yellow flowers with distinct dark striations on the lower petals, emerging on slender stalks. While not a traditional woody bonsai, its clumping growth habit could be conceptually interpreted as a miniature 'forest' of herbaceous plants.
