Ficus Microcarpa Indoor Bonsai Tree – 4 Years, Ceramic Pot

The Ficus Microcarpa, also known as the Chinese Banyan or Ficus retusa (Ficus microcarpa), is one of the most popular and hardy indoor bonsai trees, admired for its glossy evergreen canopy and thick, characterful trunk. This hand-shaped specimen is around 4 years old and about 38 cm (15 inches) tall, planted in a sleek ceramic pot.

Care

The Ficus Microcarpa is one of the easiest and most forgiving bonsai to keep, ideal for first-time growers and busy homes alike.

• Sunlight: bright, indirect light with a little morning sun; it also tolerates lower light indoors
• Watering: water when the top layer of soil begins to dry; keep it lightly moist, never soggy
• Fertilizing: feed once every 30–60 days with NPK 19:19:19 or vermicompost
• Pruning: trim lightly and regularly to hold its shape and encourage new growth

Ideal for

Compact, sculptural and slow-grown, the Ficus microcarpa makes a thoughtful indoor bonsai tree for gifting — a memorable housewarming or Griha Pravesh present, a calming companion for an office desk, or a low-maintenance green centrepiece for the living room. It thrives indoors in bright spots and can enjoy warm spells outdoors in light shade. Every bonsai is selected and shaped by hand at Abana Homes and arrives carefully packed, ready to display.
