Styling my first bonsai tree with pruning wiring indoor fig bonsai ficus retusa care and wire

My first bonsai tree - indoor fig ficus retusa how to style wire prune general care watering and repot repotting. A beginners guide... I bought this indoor bonsai tree online from an Amazon garden shop. I was really pleased with the big trunk and lush foliage but it needed shaping styling pruning and wiring to fully realise its true potential as a specimen. I will repot at a later stage once it has fully recovered after feeding and regular watering growing it outdoors for the summer with my ever growing collection. Watch to the end of the YouTube video to see the before and after. Many indoor bonsai are suitable for beginners including Chinese elm trees sageretia pomegranate succulents Jade money plants serissa and podocarpus but ficus is hard to beat. Of note there are many different varieties of ficus suitable for bonsai training including ficus benjamina weeping fig - perfect for group plantings forest bonsai.,
