Description
This specimen is identified as River Oats, a type of ornamental grass, and is not a bonsai. The image displays a single arching stem with characteristic flattened, pendulous seed heads, captured in natural light against a blurred green background. The overall form of the stem could be loosely interpreted as a semi-cascade due to its downward arching nature.
