Monthly Progress # 16

It can be safely stated that this Ficus religiosa has "taken root." This young tree is putting out new growths that classically pattern the familiar growth of a sacred ficus tree: Branches bifurcate early from a low level of a robust trunk so that the mature tree is very broad while it can also get to be very tall. There are many new stems with sustained rapid growth that is expected to continue from now onward. Here is a new panoramic view showing the Bo tree in its now familiar surrounding.
