The image is a photograph of a plant with long, thin stems and leaves. The plant appears to be a type of grass or shrub, with a long, slender stem that extends upwards towards the top of the image. The leaves are a light green color and have a pointed tip. The stems are thin and pointed, and the leaves are arranged in a way that they form a star-like shape. The roots of the plant are visible at the bottom of the photograph, and there is a label on the right side that reads "New Mexico State University" and a logo of the university on the top right corner. The background is plain white.
