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

i named her jabba the hut as it super fat and looks riclinded ala Stars Wars finest.

Now if you can get the right flat rock it will become something special!

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

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

The surface root is still well and truly alive.

Some strong growth going on.

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?
