I have one 5g Ficus habrophylla for sale $75. This is a large leafed Ficus from New Caledonia that looks like it will be a stunning plant. I managed to grow up 6 plants from an order of seed and have not seen or heard of anyone else having any luck with the seed (which seems to be the first offering) so this is a very rare plant. I have one in the ground doing great, and my "backup" is fully rooted and I don't want to move it up to a 15g so decided to sell it. I'll get a photo up later, but it's a large 5g plant perfectly healthy and ready for the ground.

The plant is sold. If seed is available again, I may grow more so if you're dying for one let me know.

Hello, does anyone have pictures of seedlings?  I have germinated several Ficus habrophylla and want to be sure they’re the right species.

@Matt in SD Have you had any luck propagating this? I tried to do it from cuttings from a tree in Portugal but never got those to root.

I have propagated a few cuttings under mist in the past.

Funny when these old posts come back up.  I only have the one plant that I planted.  I'm sure it could be air layered or grown from cuttings, but I don't have the time/energy to do it.  If someone local wants to give it a shot they can contact me.  It is a nice looking tree, photos to come...
