Not a lot of movement on this fig - am finding some species don't grow nearly as fast as I would like.

Have been a little disappointed with the growth over the last 3 months - will start feeding this fig harder now it has warmed up

Update photo - am happy with the base but the growth seems to be slow still

This is ready for a bonsai pot when I get around to it - it has grown really well but needs some branches.

Well I am very unhappy with this one - not sure if has been the mix, care or position. I will move this into a sunnier spot and give it some TLC

Yes I know - it died as a result of rot. I had it in a very large particle mix but it had a big chop on it. I think the water got into it
