Description
This image displays a wild specimen of Pit-gland Tarweed, an herbaceous plant characterized by its numerous small, bright yellow, daisy-like flowers and sticky, glandular foliage. It is not a cultivated bonsai specimen, but rather a plant growing in its natural habitat. If hypothetically trained as a bonsai, its herbaceous nature would present significant challenges.
