Ficus Suggestions

ChrisM

I think I have a good idea what I'd like to see become of this tree, but I figured I'd open it up to suggestions to see if anything that might come back would be more appealing. thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions.

Chris,

i'd thin the top out a bit for now and let the lower branches grow so that they are more in proportion to the tree

it looks nice like it is but,you can improve it over the long term by planning NOT to have a couple of sticks on the lower trunk and a blob of foliage at the top...i'm terrible at virtuals...i wish i could show you what i mean.....maybe

i hope this is acceptable...this is a link to an example of how the tree could be more balanced(to my eyes)..top to bottom

(edit)
my apologies,Chris....a political forum i sometimes enjoy i've replace the link with the one i originally intended

i too would like to see the branches more proportional, thanks for the tip. by the way, the link you provided brought me to an online discussion about the gays being married. although i have my thoughts on this and many other political issues, i won't go into them here. so,........i could not see the tree you were trying to show me.
