Thanks Hank, some nice trees there.

I'm not really into tropicals myself (wrong climate outside and I don't have the indoor space) but it's always nice to see what other people are growing. Thanks for sharing.

that top one is a knock out !

care to share more info on its journey to the present ?
or your thoughts on burtt dayvi in general
(i acquired one last year)

Thanks for the kind words.  All three of the Ficus Burtt davyi were grown from cuttings - the oldest (top) was started about 7-8 years ago. In time most develop a very nice buttress and reasonable nebari.  In the winter I water less frequently than in the growing season.   Also I have found that these figs should be re-potted (about every 1-2 years) in the spring after some new growth appears.

thanks

Did you score the dwarf variety or the standard leaf version?

you tell me -
see new post

Hank,
The non-ficus looks like operculicarya decaryi. Is that correct? If so, does it go dormant for you, and do you let it go bone dry in dormancy?

I am not certain of the botanical name -  know it only by its common name.   The tree has foliage the year round and does not appear to go dormant.  I water throughout the  year but as with most of my tropicals with less frequency in the winter months.
