Festive Ficus Repotting 2022

Post by legoman_iac »

Just repotted a few figs, as part of the festive season's festivities ...

- top left: Marie Hewartson pot with a "reclaimed" fig (from a brick wall many years ago)
- top right: to the untrained eye "sticks in a pot", aka a few roots left over thought I'd not waste them, see if the grow?
- lower left: Tracey Francis pot with an old cutting (2 years or so) that has struggled but now has a few new branches
- lower right: friend who is new to pottery made me this awesome pot, "stoneware with red glaze" ... has a drainage hole, three legs, thought it suited this fig which I saved a few years ago which has it's own story on a post here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=19250

Great start for the New Year. Love the Marie pot, really suits the tree. And your friends pot is a winner too :tu:
Need to place more orders for more pots from your friend ;)
Cheers

Great oaks from little acorns grow.

Trying to design a pot for the Acquisition prize but not sure it'll make it in time! More pots are in the works though I think, yay!!!
