Trichodiadema bulbosum - 3"

Aka African Bonsai.  This South African native is true to its bonsai nickname with a distinct, trunk-like caudex and many leafy branches. The wiry, dense branches of this plant will form a low shrub structure and blossom with brilliant pink-petaled flowers during a long growing period from spring to autumn.

The root foot, or caudex, of this plant is typically given many years to establish before it is repotted to be partially exposed above the soil. This doesn’t harm mature plants, and gives the specimen a particularly architectural look.
