Hmmmm
Definitely not moreton bay fig. The area where the leaf stem joins the leaf tells me that this is not moreton bay. More likely port jackson fig. Those scars will be healed up in no time. Just let it grow freely
After roughly 20 years of growing bonsai, I reckon I might just be starting to get the hang of it...
