Hi Q, Very nice tree and pot, a good match. :imo: it would look better if that very low branch on the left front were to be removed. It would emphasise the trunk more without that very low branch. But that's only my opinion and these things come down to personal preferences. Cheers, Frank.

Thanks everyone! Yes Frank you're probably right... just can't bring myself to chop it yet...

Update. Ronin has struggled a little with the varied climate conditions in Sydney, so not quite the level of ramification I had hoped for...

Love the trunk!
Maybe cut the branches back to bring them back and ramify some more

That trunk has really developed nicely, ficus are amazing how they still thicken up in a small pot

So I took Ken's advice and cut back the branches. I've actually taken to all my figs this way this season. No more long leggy branches spaghetti'ing together a canopy.
