Personal comment:
I love this Ficus retusa indoor bonsai. It has a highly defined structure and an impressive trunk displaying silvery striations. From the exposed roots, the eye is led up the shapely trunk with its well spaced branches. I love the pairing of this tree and the pot, it gives it such a natural form. This beautiful beginners bonsai oozes character and artistic beauty. A fantastic bonsai with beauty abound. It has a non cluttered naturally aged trunk flow and with the new flush of leaves this spring it will be more wondrous. Enjoy the lime colourings of the new foliage.

Description
Exquisite Mature Indoor Ficus Bonsai Tree – Excellence Range
Introducing the Exquisite Mature Indoor Ficus Bonsai Tree which is approaching 15 years old. A standout bonsai plant from our Excellence Range. This indoor bonsai is not just a tree, but a living work of art. Featuring the most exquisite twisting trunk design complemented by lovely silvery striations on its bark. The elegant trunk taper and well-spaced branches contribute to its overall graceful appearance, making it a perfect focal point for any indoor space.
One of the most remarkable features of this bonsai is its strong, characterful nebari—the root base that firmly anchors the tree and adds to its visual appeal. This Ficus Retusa is a mature specimen aged approximately 15 years. It has taken years of careful cultivation and design to achieve its impressive form.
Key Attributes of Ficus Retusa:
- Resilient and Easy to Care For: The Ficus Retusa is known for its ease of care. It thrives indoors and requires minimal maintenance compared to other bonsai species.
- Distinctive Trunk and Bark: The trunk of this bonsai showcases beautiful twisting patterns with silvery striations, adding depth and texture to its appearance. The natural taper of the trunk, combined with its well-spaced branches, creates a balanced and harmonious structure.
- Characterful Nebari: The strong nebari enhances the tree’s stability and aesthetic appeal, giving it a rooted and grounded presence.
Essential Indoor Ficus Bonsai Tree Care:
- Light: Place your Ficus Retusa in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but will thrive best with plenty of natural light.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently damp but not overly wet. Water when the top of soil feels dry, and reduce watering in winter when growth slows down.
- Humidity: This bonsai prefers a humid environment. Misting the leaves regularly or placing the pot on a humidity tray can help maintain the right moisture levels.
- Temperature: Ficus Retusa enjoys warm temperatures between 16-24°C. Avoid placing it near drafts or sudden temperature changes.
- Pruning: Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth. Trim back new shoots to two leaves after six to keep its elegant form. Don’t be surprised if you see a milky substance when pruning. This is latex and it is completely normal. If pruning a larger branch we recommend sealing it with kiyanol or cut paste. This prevents the milky liquid from seeping.
- Feeding: Once a week water with diluted bonsai fertiliser to provide all the necessary nutrients for this bonsai to flourish and grow.
