Description
This specimen features the delicate, pendulous spikelets of Little quaking-grass, a small annual grass. The inflorescence consists of numerous small, heart-shaped florets, often tinged with purple, hanging from slender, branching stalks. While not a traditional bonsai subject, its generally upright growth habit is noted.
