Nice article. I like Ficus Nerifolia for Bonsai. The only downside is that you have to drastically redo the tree quite often when training for Shohin size, as it outgrows the dimensions so quickly (at least in SW Florida).

Fine article. I do not grow these here, because they are not able to live outdoors in the climate we have, but it surely looks like good material in warmer winter conditions.
Thanks.

Good article, nice pictures and some very beautiful examples of Shohin ficus.

It's a pity that Rigatoni's earlier pot was broken (it fitted so well) and the tree surely deserves a better pot rather than the present one.
