Re: ficus on the rock project all done now
What a very pleasant tree to look at. Wish i have that in our balcony so i'll see it every morning
I wonder how much it would cost me to have such fine tree like that

Re: ficus on the rock project all done now
Hirow,
thanks.
The physical cost of the tree and pot is cheap- less than a 100$. but a good idea will make your composition priceless.
if you want, i can teach you how to do one (just tell me here if you have the time)...but you must keep the tree alive in a pot first for some time.

Hey Jun,
I love this cascade ficus it is very dramatic. Is it still going or have you sold it? I would love to see it now.

Hi Cockroach.
Sorry for the late reply, I didn't know this was my thread.
BTW, Who said I am selling my trees? I haven't sell any of my trees. I do tree trading, meaning I am selling trees for other people.
The tree is still with me.

jun:D

Hi Jun,
No one said you are selling lol. I assumed you may have sold it to someone as there was no update. I think you need a thread updating all your trees so I can stop my forum stalking of your tropical bonsai.
Glad to hear you keep your trees. Let's see a pic as proof

Timing of planting
Is it possible to do this radical work at any time of year on ficus trees? I have a similar tree, but I live in Canada, so it lives indoors in winter. It would be a good winter project if it won't stress the tree too much. Thank you for the inspiration.

Thanks Steve.
Go ahead. Yes the tree was developed from small young tree and as the tree grows old, step by step the branches are placed in its position. In our climate It will not take that log to develop small ficus project like this.

Re: ficus on the rock project all done now
Sorry, I am so sure how to develop ficus in the cold climate. maybe you could ask Dorothy on the details. But I am glad the project gives you inspiration.earthHeal wrote:Is it possible to do this radical work at any time of year on ficus trees?

Re: ficus on the rock project all done now
Nice! The roots will develop faster specially if you plan to wrap the roots onto a rock, if you let some of the branches (sacrificial branches) grow freely. but watch out if the lower branches are getting weaker, That is the time to cut back the sacrificial branches. and grow new ones if the main branches are stronger again.

Hi Tarek!
It really depends on the trees development and it may varies depending in your growing condition. But don't try to remove the plastic wrap If you feel the roots are not clasping the rock yet. One of the clues is by looking at the base of the root system, If it new roots are hard and strong enough chances are good that the upper roots are thick enough to hold the tree on top.

Re: ficus on the rock project all done now
Thanks Og and Cockroach.
People seems to be interested in small innovative projects. I've been working with bigger ones but involving the same techniques I learned from the small ones. I'll try to show them later and hopes It will help some people in their own projects.

Jun,
Can you share progress on this tree please? Would be keen to see how it is turning out. I guess the roots are bare now, considering ficus-long in your climate is something like 6 months
