I've noticed and have bought a few ' fat plant ' from Home Depot over the last two years here in So Cali . I am not sure if they are Chinese Privets or a type of Ficus . Is anyone familar with these plants coming from Home Depot ? Although Ficus benjamina seem to have thinner leaves than these 'fat plant ' bonsai BUT they both produce the milky liquid when trimmed . How do you tell the difference between a ficus and chinese privets ?
