A pre-bonsai is a small tree with specific features, that with a little work and some care can become a beautiful bonsai. The pre-bonsais are grown from seedlings to get a good nebari, which is the base of the trunk, fine roots near the trunk, and several design possibilities. This pre-bonsai line will allow you to model and design the bonsai in the style you want or that the tree indicates.

Location: Ideally in a Mediterranean climate, outdoors all year round. In cooler climates ensure they are always protected from freezing temperatures.
Watering: Generously in summer, decreasing in winter.
Curiosities: Flowers are found inside the fig. Most of the cultivated fig trees only have female flowers. To be able to be fertilised a male fig tree is required as it has both male and female flowers.

Other soils can also be used, such as a mixture of 80% Akadama + 20% Kiryuzuna or Pomice, which promotes growth, although it will require more frequent watering.
