John,
I love both your trees. I am not personally in love with the rock.

I love your figs, and I love the rock too. I have one like it - I was told it came from the Woomera Rocket Range, but couldn't swear to it. Bought it at a tropical fish shop (when I was into fish and not into bonsai).

Hi Glenda, if your rock came from Woomera rocket rang it will glow in the dark

Very nice designed figs John, I'm with Jerry on the rock tho, I find it distracts me away from your beautiful fig.

Very nice figs John you should be proud!
Has defoliation been a regular part of training your top fig? Love its shape.

Two very nice trees but I am with Jerry and do not like the rock.It is a good rock but does not complement the tree.
