Love that...🍃🍃

@wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom ☺️ Thank you!!!

I haven't posted anything about this guy in a long time! Still scared to try any training on it though lol 😂 #bonsai #taylorsplants #plantupdate 8/16/19

Up close and personal with my Bonsai! I've read from multiple sites that as this grows you're supposed to cut two leaves off for every six leaves that grow in. Of course each website was just a liiiitle different quantity wise so I just go with the lesser. Any #tips or #suggestions would be very much appreciated like with all of my plants! 😁 #ficus #ginseng #bonsai #ficusginseng

Plant 2/5 😅 This big guy didn't come with a #plantid tag but doing my research I think maybe it could be a desert rose of some sort? Photo: Dec. 26th, 2018

@treefrog44 Would you possibly have an idea? Lol 🤗😄

I'm not sure what this is, but I love the glossy leaves and enlarged base! I will pass it on to a few other brilliant minds! @lovemygarden65 @Muzz67 @mrsflowerpot @lovestogarden @valjones-hughes @Naomi126 @thedanielrichards @richard.spicer.7906 @ShelleySnyder @cyndi @clipperty - Thoughts? Thanks! 🤗😘😊

I think you may be right Taylor, anyone else?🤔💘😍

That's a bonsai. Probably that's a variety of fig tree but I'm not sure.

I thought for a minute or may be a moreton bay fig but really not sure sorry

I think @taylork has it

I see a lot of these at garden centers... I think it's a bonsai ficus benjamina @taylork

Don't think it's a desert rose, the leaves are more narrow and compact on a desert rose, and the plant stems are thick like a succulent...

My go-to plant id-er is @icedance ... d’you agree with @tree frog Sam, is it ficus? Xx

I do @treefrog44 @clipperty I'd say bonsai Ficus benjamina is a pretty safe bet from the leaf and stem 👍👍

@cyndi @icedance @treefrog44 @clipperty @valjones-hughes @Muzz67 @jyotu @ShelleySnyder @KariSamuel YOU ALL ROCK! That is why I LOVE GT!!
