Ed, Jerry and Todd - Thanks so much for the input. Good to hear what's worked for you, we can all learn from experiences. Thanks WOG, also.

Btw, this is my Keith Scott pot I mentioned when I commented on Dale's thread about his passing. I think it's a good fit for this ficus and it makes me happy to see them together. I like to think Keith would approve too.

You have evolved the design again. Congrats.

Thanks Jerry.

After looking at it for a while, I decided it need to be loosened up a bit...

It never ceases to amaze me how much detail is lost in pictures.

Wow do you know the sp. name of the ferns that were growing at the base of your ficus???

Great tree, very natural.

Thanks. That's Selaginella moellendorfii, I brought it home from Japan in '85 and it comes up in EVERYTHING. Goes by "goldren fern", or something like that.

Welcome Kittysafe, and thanks!
