You Garden Ficus Microcarpa Ginseng Bonsai Fig 14cm Pot

The Ficus Microcarpa Ginseng 'Bonsai Fig' is a beautiful and unique way to bring a little zen into your home. While it may look like something out of Professor Sprout's classroom, this quirky Ficus Ginseng (grown in Bonsai style) is a robust, easy-care houseplant. As a bonsai suitable for beginners, the plant is characterized by the shape of its trunk and the miniature canopy of small shiny oval leaves. The thick pot-bellied trunk is actually made up of roots and this is where it gets its name - Ginseng is Chinese for root. Originating in Asia the roots of Ficus Ginseng are grown for 15 years or so before being finished in the greenhouse as bonsai, so your little plant has already lived a long life by the time it arrives in your home. Place your Ficus Ginseng in a prominent place so it can be enjoyed all day, and in summer it can even take pride of place outdoors on the patio or decking! Ideal for those venturing into the world of bonsai growing for the first time, Ficus Ginseng is the easiest bonsai tree to grow because it is very tolerant of a wide range of conditions. Supplied as a potted plant in a 14cm nursery pot. May cause skin irritation.
