I would like to share my progression of my first Ficus. I bought the tree 4 years ago. The first pic was 3 years ago after a trim. The second pic was a month ago just prior to a repot. I chopped the trunk at this time also. You can see how tall the trunk was and how much it thickened in a few years. Third pic is root work and the last pic is how the tree looks tonight. The current plan is to let the trunk grow out do at least one more chop. The right side needs branching to catch up with the left. I see this tree being pretty large when it's all said and done.
I have a few questions: Does anyone have a good guess as to what type of ficus this is? Do you think I will be able to reduce the leaves? If the leaves can be reduced then I would be more inclined to make the tree smaller. Any styling advice is welcome.
