Ficus, Banana-Leaf Fig, Saber Ficus 'Alii' (Ficus maclellandii)
one I've wanted for quite some time...
I've grown this in bright light inside for nine years.
A specimen in the Greenhouse at Western Colorado Botanical Gardens. -What happens to that novelty braiding after a few years.
Ficus bought as a cheap "clearance" plant 5 years ago, now has to be trimmed and topped regularly in Sebring, Florida
Thought is was protected enough from Jan. '09 freeze.
