    Ficus Microcarpa 'Tiger Bark' – One of a Kind Bonsai ...
    Ficus microcarpa (Chinese Banyan) is a durable, fast-growing tropical bonsai, ideal for beginners due to its high adaptability and ability to form intricate branching and aerial roots. They prefer bright light, high humidity, and regular pruning during spring and summer to maintain their canopy shape, often creating dense,, mushroom-like tops. 
    Key Care & Styling Guidelines: 
    • Placement & Light: Thrives in bright, direct light (south or west-facing windows). They can be kept outdoors during summer (above
      60∘
      F
      /
      15∘
      C
      ), but must be protected from freezing temperatures.
    • Watering: Water thoroughly only when the topsoil is slightly dry, avoiding consistent soggy soil. They require consistent moisture during the growing season and less during winter.
    • Pruning & Branching: To encourage a dense, multi-branch structure, prune back new shoots in spring. If a branch has 5-6 leaves, prune it back to 1-2 leaves to encourage back budding.
    • Wiring: Use
      2.5
      mm
      aluminum wire to guide the direction of the branches, removing it before it bites into the bark.
    • Soil & Repotting: Use a fast-draining, granular mix (such as equal parts lava, pumice, and akadama) to encourage healthy root growth. Repot during the warm spring or summer months.
    • Styling: Known for developing thick, "gnarly" bark, aerial roots, and robust trunk taper. 
    Specific Varieties: 
    • Ficus Microcarpa 'Ginseng': Characterized by thick, swollen, potato-like roots.
    • Ficus Microcarpa 'Tiger Bark': Known for its grey, spotted, or striped bark and strong branching structure. 
    Common Issues: 
    • Leaf Drop: Caused by sudden changes in light or temperature.
    • Weak Growth: Often caused by too little light, requiring brighter, warmer conditions.
