The bulbous aerial roots - the most fascinating characteristic of the Ficus Ginseng - achieve dimensions and complexity that require years, if not decades, to develop. Some are as large as potatoes, others stretch and intertwine, creating structures of extraordinary sculptural beauty. The massive, gnarled trunk tells a story of slow and patient growth. The broad and dense canopy crowns this structure with a lush green mantle of small, shiny leaves.

Large Ficus Ginseng specimens are particularly prized in Asia, where they are considered symbols of longevity, prosperity, and wisdom. In China and Taiwan, where \u003cem\u003eFicus microcarpa\u003c\/em\u003e is native, large specimens are passed down through generations as true family heirlooms. The name \u003cem\u003eGinseng\u003c\/em\u003e refers to the resemblance of the bulbous roots to the precious medicinal root, which has been a symbol of vitality and longevity in Asian culture for millennia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each Bonsai Ficus Ginseng is unique and unrepeatable.
