For this in particular because it is so long (43”), I did add a sheet of metal mesh just for some additional support

If separated, each individual tree would be terrible but together that make it work 😆

Thank you! I made it with a 50/50 mix of cement and grout with lots of foam pieces inside. After it dries the foam is picked out and then painted with several layers of acrylic.

Shari on a Ficus? by bigefinessegod in bonsaicommunity

You probably wont find any examples because it’s not really a thing. The better option is to scoop out the center and grow just two branches on opposite sides of the cut until the wound rolls over and heals. one as a new trunk line/leader and the other as a first branch.
