Bought at local grocery, didnt state the species. Tried looking on google and here and I thought ginseng ficus. But then the care info talked about fig and the pics looked different, so now I'm not sure.
Any help would be appreciated

Ficus Ginseng ??

Not sure that actually exists

The Frankenstein Ficus.
A classic.

But not a bonsai. Groceries don't sell bonsai.

My ficus was a grocery store purchase, and looks pretty good. It was about $5.00 about 1997 and took some work. It was in a pot about the size of my hand and now is in a pot about 20", 50 cm.

Oh, $5.00 would be €4.00.

Pictures!?

This is pretty dark, because it's night and raining outside. Maybe tomorrow, it it isn't raining when I get home.

A much better picture. It will get its usual spring major trim soon, and probably a larger pot in a couple of years. There is a pencil sitting on the dirt for size purposes.

Also is the current major project, a boxwood that was in front of the house in 1986, close to my height then. So probably 50 years old. Last April I dug it up. Last month I cut a lot of deadwood off, last weekend I put it in a pot, and next will do some trimming, picking out where green stuff will be, then all summer carving jin. Comments are welcome, and I might pay attention to one or two.
