Description
This specimen of Hairy Lip Fern (Cheilanthes lanosa) is observed growing naturally on a rocky substrate. It features delicate, bipinnate fronds with a characteristic hairy texture, displaying a vibrant green color with some older fronds showing yellowing. While not a traditional bonsai, its natural growth habit on the rock could conceptually align with a 'root-over-rock' presentation if adapted.
