Ficus penjing

Post by billyc89 »

Hi all, this is my first attempt at a penjing. I have used PJ's on left and right, and in the middle a benjamina "starlight". I have noticed on this forum that many seem against using variegated varieties for bonsai, however I saw that this one adds another contrast compared to the PJ's and accents. Plus variegated varieties do occur in nature, rarely. Hopefully it will look good as the plants mature. Any comments welcome. Cheers.
