'Natural' Bonsai












 This Bonsai (Ficus) is from Kikruma village, Phek District, Nagaland. My brother found it lying in the backyard of my uncle's house. It wasn't groomed to be Bonsai from the start but was just found as such, old yet not grown tall. So, it is a 'natural' Bonsai, so to say.

My brother brought it down to Kohima but wasn't looking after it as well as I wanted. So, I took it from him. I will make a proper bonsai pot for it this season. Needs prunning too.

The tree is about 26 years old, although we're not sure. Last year 2015, we thought that it must Bbe about 25 years old.
