The image depicts a plant with a tall brown stem and green leaves at the base. The plant has a large, rounded top with many long, thin, red stamens extending outward. Two hummingbirds are flying around the plant, one on the left side and one on top. The hummingbird on the left has a black back, white belly, and orange and yellow markings on its neck and head. The hummingbird on top has brown and black wings, with a yellow and orange head. In the background, there are mountains and hills covered in greenery, with a blue sky and white clouds above. A person sits on a rock in the lower right corner, wearing a hat and dark clothing. The scene is set against a beige border with cursive text at the bottom that reads "Large Flowering Sensitive Plant."
