I picked up some ficus cuttings off Facebook two winters back and last summer assembled this forest. It grew very well and was already in need of a repot. Here is the current product.

I'm letting some of the trees run wild to create different trunk sizes, in particular the main tree. And I'm already finding I need to reign in the trees on the perimeter.

The current pot is 12" across, and I think the finished size of the forest will be around 18-20". Might need a slightly wider, shallower pot for the next repotting.

'Too Little' is a better variety for forests, almost tailor-made.

I agree these are a little leggy. I'm not concerned about the leaf size but getting tight branching will be a challenge. We'll see how it goes.
