Description
This image depicts a large, vibrant green fern, commonly known as Urajiro, growing in its natural forest habitat. It is not a bonsai specimen. The fronds emerge from a central point and spread upwards and outwards, which, if forced into a bonsai style classification, might be loosely interpreted as an informal-upright growth habit.
