Description
This conceptual bonsai features the characteristic trifoliate leaves and small white flowers of the Virginia Strawberry. Its low-growing, herbaceous habit makes it an unconventional choice for bonsai, typically cultivated for ground cover and fruit rather than traditional tree-like forms. The plant exhibits runners, a key propagation feature.
