Yes it is one Ficus benjamina that I defoliate fearlessly, although not regularly. Generally I don't like defoliating this species as it can respond poorly, but the small dark green leafed variety can be defoliated and respond well. Ash

Hi Morrow - that is perfect strangler-fig-bonsai material! It is just what my one looked like some moons ago. Thanks FMB! Ash

Great idea!
