Rescue Ficus
This ficus was one I picked up at Clover nursery, where Bonsai club meetings are held. While attending my first workshop, this tree was offered for rescue and I gladly accepted it. I will certainly have to find a way to compensate it's previous owner for handing it over.
You can see now it's healthy and happy in a proper pot. I am still of two minds about the single large air root descending straight down from just the wrong place on the second trunk bend...a quandary. Everyone who has seen this tree comments about it, and it is definitely a unique feature. BUT IT'S ALL WRONG!!!
Honestly I can't bring myself to snip it...maybe next year...
