Hey all,



This is probably my only surviving Ficus that I've grown from seed. It's a Ficus rubiginosa. I planted this guy in February 2012, and it sprouted in April of 2012, so that gives you an idea of age.

It sprouted:

I let it grow, then repotted it:

Another post coming....
 
Fast forward to today and this tree is massive:

Nice sacrifice branch:

Base is thickening quickly due to aerial roots:

And rather large leaves add to the growth rate:

Scratch the rubig. label, this may just be a macrophylla....:confused:
