My rounded, dark-green leaves are densely arranged in a compact canopy. I am a type of ficus with thick shiny evergreen leaves that are tightly wound around my branches. I'm rugged, easy to care for, and slow-growing. I love bright conditions and get watered every 5-7 days.Symbolism: After attaining enlightenment, Buddha was believed to have sat under a Ficus tree for seven days, absorbed in his new-found realization. Generally, Ficuses encourage stability and steadfastness in Feng Shui. Its Wood element feeds Fire in the productive cycle, symbolizing expansion and the chance for continuous growth and enhanced wealth or success. Moreover, its 'Zhen' Chi gives this tree the ability to amplify protective energy, especially in one's career and financial journey.This class is for beginners to intermediate.TOTAL SEATS: 6Materials Provided: One handmade small bonsai planter in white, one bonsai tree, soil, decorative rocks, necessary tools for repotting.
