Common Fig – September 2021 Creation

So this one has spent a couple of years growing, and is ready for potting.

So many branches on just one trunk.
Spectacular.

Time to get in, but what do I find? That’s not one plant. Or two. Or even three. There’s 4 separate trees tucked away in there (even if I only have pictures for 3).

Oh, well, let’s soldier on. Prepping a circular pot for the ticket with wires and inorganic soil mix:

High Drainage allows frequent watering.

There are these holes from previous pruning, which is a little unusual.

Some sort of bug? Or is this a normal reaction, with the heartwood withdrawing?

Anyway, it came out successfully. Here’s the full tree in December 2021.

Now it’s clearly multiple trees.

I want to gradually bring this in tighter… some of the limbs are too long. Also, lets get some moss going over winter.
