jabba the hut
collected this fig in winter and after a little root hormones and a few months in a grow box it was going crazy.

Re: jabba the hut
The tree is looking very good.
As Lennard suggested it might look really nice planted on a mound on top of a rock.

Re: jabba the hut
Looks like the big surface root has died and rotted, you could cut it off and sit tree more upright?

Re: jabba the hut
Looking good in what looks like a Pat Kennedy pot.
The tree has some semi cascade movement happening; thought of putting the tree in a semi-cascade style pot?

After roughly 20 years of growing bonsai, I reckon I might just be starting to get the hang of it...
