Description
This specimen presents as a slender, upright herbaceous plant, featuring small, delicate blue flowers clustered at the apex. Its stem is straight and green, with hairy, lanceolate leaves arranged alternately. While not a traditional woody bonsai, its simple, erect form could be interpreted as a very young, informal upright style if cultivated in a pot.
