The Asian fig tree is very strong, develops beautiful aerial roots, and has an interesting, speckled, grooved bark. The photo is representative of a small batch of bonsai; the delivered specimen may vary slightly. The estimated age of this Ficus bonsai tree is 9-11 years. This bonsai tree comes with a pot and saucer, and we also include extensive care instructions. The Ficus retusa has smaller leaves, making it ideal for bonsai cultivation. This species is exceptionally hardy, tolerates somewhat less light, and is very leaf-hardy. Water less in winter. In the Far East, this tree species grows to enormous heights, and children play among the root grooves. These root grooves develop when the aerial roots touch the ground and thicken. Trees from (sub)tropical regions are accustomed to a more or less constant annual temperature. Unlike trees from our climate, they do not require a dormant period with a drop in temperature and leaf loss. This makes these species perfectly suited for indoor cultivation. In the summer, when temperatures exceed 15 degrees Celsius, they can also thrive outdoors, for example on a patio. Generally, they will thrive outdoors due to the better climate (humidity, light, and fresh air).
