Finally getting these buds to keep going. @Shibui who were we talking to about ficus buds? I want them to see this one. This is the one I was thinking about.
That little branch in that low "U" on the left, popped up years ago but didn't continue, maybe a couple times. This time, it finally kept going! I have been trying to cut back to there for years!

I think they will reliably try to grow from anywhere they've grown before.

Pretty sure my scale problem is controlled enough to ruin x-mas!
Until then, I'm gonna be happy about some interior buds that finally branched.

8 years down. Any bets on how much rock will be visible in 8 more?

Still no takers on the "gift for a friend" riddle?

It looks like the movie in this picture!

I love this tree. It really shows what you can accomplish by starting off right. The tree would never have gotten where it is now without the wiring work in the beginning. Well done.

The ants seem to keep these things sorted by size and/or growth cycle, making it easier to know what to look for where.
