I got this Port Jackson Fig back on 9th April 2011, from Neski's.
Potted it up into a white pot and basically put aside to grow
I did not do a lot with it after this, Defoliated it a couple of times and did some minor wiring just to start getting some shape.
Today (25th August 2012) I defoliated it again and did some pruning and wiring.
Im not sure weather to remove the lower left branch or shorten the one on the right, let me know what you think.

Re: My liitle Fig
the left branch looks a little like a Bar branch, but on Figs you can get away with them many times.
I would keep it myself at least till the tree develops lots more and then you may decide to remove it. Lovely trunk and movement
