🌳 About the Bonsai

The Indoor Classic: 7-Year Ficus Tigerbark Bonsai (14”) is a beautifully matured specimen of Ficus microcarpa, admired for its textured “tiger stripe” bark and lush green foliage.

At seven years old, this bonsai has developed:

• Attractive tiger-pattern trunk texture

• Strong trunk base

• Balanced canopy structure

• Healthy root system

• Compact 14-inch indoor-friendly height

Its classic form and structured growth make it ideal for living rooms, offices, reception areas, and meditation corners.

☀️ Location & Light

Ficus can be kept both indoors and outdoors.

• Prefers warm and humid weather.

• If kept indoors, provide a few hours of direct natural sunlight daily.

• For outdoor placement, morning sunlight is best for growth.

• Avoid harsh afternoon sunlight as it may damage delicate leaves and dry new aerial roots.

Aerial roots are one of the key attractions of Ficus Tigerbark. They grow well in high humidity environments. During summer, placing a water tray nearby helps maintain humidity and supports healthy aerial root development.

💧 Watering

Ficus prefers moist, well-drained soil.

• Water twice daily if kept outdoors (depending on weather conditions).

• Water once daily if kept indoors.

• Always water when the topsoil feels dry.

• Avoid overwatering as it may cause root rot.

Watering frequency depends on location, climate, and humidity.

🌱 Fertilizing & Nutrition

For healthy foliage and trunk development:

• Use NPK 20:20:20 water-soluble fertilizer twice a month during the growing season.

For steady and balanced nutrition, we recommend using our Slow-Release Fertilizer for Bonsai – All in One Balanced Nutrition.

Benefits of Slow-Release Fertilizer:

• Gradual nutrient supply

• Encourages compact leaf growth

• Supports strong root formation

• Maintains vibrant green foliage

• Reduces risk of over-fertilization

Regular feeding ensures your 7-year Ficus Tigerbark maintains its classic indoor beauty.

✂️ Pruning & Shaping

This tree grows actively when properly nourished.

• Trim when necessary to maintain shape.

• Remove larger leaves to preserve proportion.

• Regular pruning encourages a dense, balanced canopy.

Light shaping helps retain its refined indoor appearance.

🪴 Repotting & Soil Mix

Repot when roots fill the container.

Recommended soil mix:

• Sand

• Garden soil

• Lava granules

• Coco husk

• Bio compost

Add Vermi compost once a year for added nutrition.

Ensure the soil mix is well-draining to prevent root diseases.
