Hi Andy, That is the nice thing I see about figs as bonsai. They grow so darned fast you can change styles more often than you can with other trees Hi Brian, I appreciate the fact that you consider my post worthy of discussion. I 'was' viewing the tree as a forest and did not even realize it until you made mention of it. But when I view it as a single tree my eye is still drawn to and up from the main trunk. When I get to the top it feels as though I have come to a dead end in the road, if that makes any sense. If I may, I'll throw this into the discussion as well. I don't think a scalene triangle does this tree justice. With the massive aerial roots and the multiple trunks I think a style combining the triangle and a broom would add more heft to the trees masculinity. Once again Andy I hope you continue to keep posting the changes you make to this tree.
