Ficus Bonsai Tree: Fig tree species are very popular for bonsai making. Several characteristics like fast growth, ability to grow indoors, and very tolerant of overwatering make fig so popular in bonsai use. It grows a dense canopy, and it has thick, shiny, evergreen leaves. Figs all have in common a habit of producing aerial roots from branches and the upper trunk. In nature, the aerial roots growing from the branches eventually become strong enough to support the parent branch, structurally and nutritionally. Those emerging from the trunk tend to self-graft to the trunk as they grow downwards. This causes the trunk to thicken rapidly and adopt a deeply fluted appearance. Large specimen bonsai figs use this natural process to good effect. Most fig trees grow "banyan" roots naturally; this feature is often showcased by styling Ficus bonsai trees in dramatic air-root and root-over-rock styles .
