Tigerbark ambush (Ficus microcarpa)

Written by dkinzey

I just learned that a group of tigers is called an ‘ambush’ or a ‘streak’, hence the name of today’s post. These 35 tigerbark ficus all originated as clippings from the mother tree in the blue pot on the left in the image. The developmental histories of several of these trees have their own posts on this blog. Today’s posting includes four trees that have not been posted before.
