Info:

Ficus microcarpa, often known as 'Chana Ficus' in the bonsai community, belongs to the Moraceae family and originates from the tropical regions of Asia and the Pacific Islands. Its aesthetic appeal, paired with its adaptability to a bonsai form, makes it a favorite among enthusiasts.

Plantation:

  1. Choosing the Right Pot: Opt for a shallow, wide container that allows the roots to spread.
  2. Soil Mix: A well-draining mix, such as a combination of akadama, pumice, and organic compost, is ideal.
  3. Planting Depth: Ensure that the tree is planted so that the surface roots (nebari) are slightly visible above the soil level.

Growing:

  1. Light Requirements: Place the Chana Ficus in bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight might burn the leaves.
  2. Temperature: This bonsai prefers temperatures between 60°F (15°C) and 75°F (24°C).
  3. Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Overwatering or letting the bonsai sit in water can lead to root rot.

Care:

  1. Pruning: Regularly prune to maintain the desired shape, especially during the growing season.
  2. Feeding: Use a balanced, liquid bonsai fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season.
  3. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years to replenish the soil and give the roots room to grow.
  4. Pests and Diseases: Watch out for common pests like aphids, mealybugs, and scale. Neem oil or insecticidal soap can be an effective treatment.

Benefits:

  1. Aesthetic Appeal: The 'Chana Ficus' adds a touch of nature's beauty to any interior or balcony.
  2. Air Purification: Like other ficus varieties, this bonsai helps in purifying the air by removing common pollutants.
  3. Therapeutic Value: Caring for a bonsai can be therapeutic, offering a sense of accomplishment and a way to focus and destress.
