Hey again everyone,

I thought I would share the progression of another Willow Leaf Ficus I have. I've owned this tree since April 27, 2011. Here's the progression.

The tree as first purchased from online:

{{gwi:23596}}

{{gwi:23597}}

{{gwi:23598}}

{{gwi:23599}}

After a repot into better soil and removal of some roots:

{{gwi:23600}}

{{gwi:23601}}

More rootwork, here are the roots before:

{{gwi:23602}}

And after:

{{gwi:23603}}

Much better:

{{gwi:23604}}

{{gwi:23605}}

I chopped it back a bit:

{{gwi:23606}}

Then it backbudded and grew like crazy:

{{gwi:23607}}

{{gwi:23608}}

So I pruned it and selected future branches:

{{gwi:23609}}

{{gwi:23611}}

And here we are as of tonight, with branches wired and tree fed with Miracle-Gro:


Comments always welcome.
