Ficus species- Ficus
The tiny ficus species and cultivars are very popular indoor bonsai. They can be kept in a less sunny room near a window. If possible, put it out in the summer, making it even more smooth and powerful. Do not place it in drafts and protect from cold. She does not bear the over-watering, but do not dry his ground completely, if it is a little bit no problem.
Pruning: Cut back 6-8 leafs so that two leaves remain. The new shoot will grow towards the top leaf.
Transplantation: one to two years, older trees are rarer in AKADAMA or FRUX bonsai land. It can be transplanted at any time of the year, but it is expedient in spring. The cut shoots are well rooted as cuttings.
