Bonsai ficus

This cute Ficus microcarpa bonsai will make your surroundings more enjoyable.

A bonsai is a tiny tree that has been artificially crafted to look like it is growing. Strong roots, stalks, and tiny alternating oval-shaped leaves in dark green give the Ficus microcarpa bonsai its distinctive shape.

There are more heavy, exposed aerial roots on it than there would be on a natural root. These roots look more like trunks.
