G'day all just a quick post to show some progression on a Ficus Natalensis I have that started as a 2cm 10cm long cutting back in 2011 with 3 leggy "branches running off it. I have used and abused thus tree as my learning device had a lot of fun and a little success along the way.
these 2 are before putting it in a pot in January 2021
and today will be heading in a newish direction later next month so wanted to put this out there i can post more photos later. I have a few ideas on what direction it may take but wanted open thoughts

That’s a very large tree, look forward to seeing where your changes will take it in the next few weeks.
The tree labeled Nat’s competition is that also one of yours?
Cheers
Kirky

So serious competition then
I think in our own way we are all competitive, trying to aspire to that tree we have seen and want.
