Hailing from the warm climates of Southeast Asia, Ficus retusa is renowned for its thick, woody trunk and dense canopy of dark green leaves, making it a favorite among bonsai enthusiasts. The species thrives in the Insula system, which provides a special substrate mix ball covered in living moss on a coconut mat base, ensuring the bonsai maintains optimal humidity and aeration. This setup allows the Ficus retusa to flourish in indirect light, whether near a window or supplemented by a WIO LED lamp, making it a versatile choice for indoor decoration. The Insula system not only supports the bonsai's health but also simplifies its care, making it accessible to bonsai practitioners of all levels.
