my large 'ficus' bonsai


my large 'ficus' bonsai

Currently residing in my summerhouse while the weather is still warm enough - she thrives on a good misting and a sunny day to create humidity - some leaf pruning required asap!

Hi Jacks247. A very warm welcome to GOY. Look forward to seeing your garden.

She's a beauty - welcome from me too.

Thank you to both of you - she has many more leaves & growth now and we have to spend some 'time' together (snip!)... I adore her - I was at a friend of a friend's house and saw her, my eyes lit up and I commented to the owner about her. She replied 'that bloody thing - needs too much looking after!!' A deal was struck at £50 - yes £50 - the bargain of my life so far I reckon, bearing her size in mind - over a metre and in an 18inch pot. She has flourised with food, misting, sunshine, watering and love!

Great bargain and you've obviously looked after her well.

she puts my other bonsai (much smaller and younger) in the shade i must admit.. She is now covered in leaves and the comparison with this photo is noticable in such a sort time.
