Description
This miniature specimen of Sea Milkwort, though an unconventional choice for bonsai, displays multiple slender, upright herbaceous stems. Its small, fleshy, oval leaves form a dense canopy, and it is currently in bloom with delicate pinkish-white flowers. This plant could be cultivated as a unique accent plant or a very small kusamono-style bonsai.
