This is the very same species and practically identical to the bonsai that I just got for my birthday. Apparently, one of the easiest types to grow and care for. We'll see... It sure is a handsome little devil though. Also known as Banyan Fig and Taiwan Ficus. The Retusa has small, dark green leaves which alternate up the stem and which are more oval than the Benjamina. Grey to reddish bark dotted with small, horizontal flecks, similar to tiger-like markings. All have heavy trunks and all are trained in the traditional curved shape. Among the most tolerant, versatile and trouble-free bonsai trees for indoor use. (via bonsaiboy.com)
