Awesome tree and especially the roots. Thanks Ken.

Surely that tree is older than 30 years though??

I am only guessing by the age of the suburb
Unless planted much earlier as part of the primal farm, but its the only one around here like it?

The other thing is th branches are not too thick. They do not seem thick enough to me

There is a style called "Savannah style" which suits figs. Have a look at the Lion King which has a few in the background.

This is one inside the croc enclosure at Taronga. Hence the reflection in the glass. I love the trunk though. It even has what looks like a bonsai pot.

A couple of natural banyans in my suburb.

Hi all this is my natural Fig

Ficus watkinsiana and Ficus rubiginosa from Tamborine Mountain.

The best ficus bonsai I've ever seen are those from Taiwan as seen here: http://www.sidiao.com/index_e.htm
