History
During the Past Arc: The Locus of Konoha, Naruto, Sakura, and Ino encountered her in the Jofuku Forest, where she had come to investigate the commotion as Naruto tore apart the false Gaara conjured by the Jofuku flowers. Asked by Naruto why she chose to live and labor alone on the mountain, she told him it was her own decision and no concern of his. Her deep familiarity with the flowers, and the many she had gathered, showed that she had either fended off their defenses or found a safe way to harvest them, either one a mark of her skill.
