AusBonsai

Hi here’s a few of mine
Port Jackson collected in the late sixties

A Little Ruby I picked up last year, deceased estate, Cambewarra Bonsai. Chopped 90%, wired and potted, root over rock.

Queensland small leaf Fig, had it for a long time, exsposed root, a bit quirky

Ficus obliqua another one from the sixties, major chop last year, one year of development, I really like the trunk.

Another Queensland small leaf shonin stands at 180mm, great ramification for 2 Years development


Thanks
Tim

sooo....here are a few of my figs...lol. Most need pruning, none of them qualify as bonsai, but they keep me busy.

I teally like your willow leaf figs.... I'll try and make some room on my benches in near future....!!

Thanks guys. They're still a long way from being anything special, but they're lots of fun. @Pierre you really should get some Willow leaf figs, they would thrive in your yard! (Could be too much work though...so that should be kept in mind.)

Quick update of my figs

They're looking nice and healthy!

I looked at these pics yesterday and realised some of the plants shown had evolved a little, so I'm posting them together, plus some others....

Here is one of my fav little figs just before I gave it a first wire last week

Sorry if the quality is crap reducing to 1mb is hard to do and some how made it much smaller from a 6mb photo

Coming along very nicely Mel. Would say no to any of them
Cheers

Thanks Kirky, they've all gone gangbusters since then! Too hot to go out and take photos though, so you'll have to take my word for it.

Holiday Fig!
Holidaying with 4 grandkids and 2 Figs and finally got around to wiring this one, I inherited this one from my late Grandma back in the early 90’s hence the “mermaid” style trunk which I’ve retained rather than a radical restyle. I’m happy with it after it’s third wiring in as many years, although it needs more back branches mid canopy. Excuse my wiring as I’m recovering from a dislocated finger...... and also the pot $2.47 from Kmart it’s that old!
Wishing you all a fantastic 2021
