I teach several study groups in Florida a few times a year. Here are some of the trees that we worked on.
ficus before
We made major cuts and shortened larger branches last year, then bare-rooted and repoted it. This is how it looks before another major work.
after major branches pruning and repot
We cut off more branches and then repoted it again to try to encourage more roots for better nebari.
