An update of Ficus no.1.
I repotted this one last year into a terracotta pot that I really don't like, it's too deep and had stupid rope glued to it but the tree seems to like it at any rate. Maybe if it was half as deep I would like it more, dunno.
Anyway, I have never really had any good idea on which way to take this tree so have just let it do it's thing. Getting a bit bushy and dense in the canopy now too so need to get some light in. It's been one of our coldest winters this past one and only now are the temps starting to get to where they should of been a while ago, regardless I only brought it inside twice this year when the predicted temp was to go below freezing, other than that it's been out all year.
It also looks to have put a lot of energy into thickening up the aerial roots but hasn't really created anymore new ones.
So my plan as earlier mentioned will be to defoliate it to have a good look see, I already know it is going to be awkward in there but hopefully an idea will come along, I'm contemplating doing something like defra has done with the moss.
