PJ fig - trim

great tree. It will develop into a fabulous specimen in a few years.

I too very much like this tree.

I can't say the same for the pot - just a bit too large and bold for my liking.
Look forward to the moment when you can take enough off the roots to safely move it to a new home.
I reckon it will really lift the overall appearance of this combination.

Thanks and i agree, the pot is just temporary with the plan to pot it up into something about half the depth and maybe more of an oval shape. Probably a lighter colour too.

Update on this one.... I defoliate this guy a couple of weeks ago and got it into a new smaller pot. I could go a bit shallower in the future but I'll do that some time down the track... And will lift it a bit further as well. I think it's better than the last pot but have my mind on maybe something a bit more earthy maybe unglazed with texture but still in the lighter colours... Just have to keep looking.....

Stunning tree matlea! For what it's worth I think the dimensions of that pot are ideal.

I’ve ended up placing this one into a wider pot as I’m trying to develop the roots a bit more.

Plan is to extend the silhouette a bit more as the tree ramifies.

I may increase the height slightly as well to balance the extra width
