Benji ready for initial training
I've had this benji for a number of years now. Except for the odd branch chop I have not done anything to it. I think that it is time to do some work on it. Any and all ideas are welcome.

Are we sure this is a Benjamina?
I'd be thinking of a canopy and what branches I'm going to use to support such a canopy.

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Yea I don't think thats a Benji, but I do think it needs a repot!

Re: Benji ready for initial training
Have always thought that it is a Benji though it wouldn't be the first time that I was wrong 
I'm thinking of developing a canopy but am open to any suggestions and or virts.
