This Benji was your typical standard (lollypop) ficus sitting on a patio, neglected, root bound and a lot of die back. It was given to me in November 2009. Not a pritty sight. I removed the top leaving only a 25cm trunk, cut off most of the roots and re-potted it. Then waited to see the out come. The 1st, 2 photos were taken 2/8/2010. some trimming and wiring and waited some more. 1/8/2011, I potted it up and re wired it.
the next photo was taken on 23/12/2011 after a trim we are very pleased with the leaf reduction as you can see in this photo,
the lrage leaf is from the top (cutting) of the orriginal tree. Chris

Thats some nice work you've done there Chris would look good in anybodys collection

I love figs but haveing just moved to melbourne the growth has somewhat slowed

Nice leaf reduction.

Now that is one good looking Benji

You must be very proud of your efforts.
This shows a really great progression.
Congratulations.
