So the little ficus that I was afraid of loosing... is doing better-ish. I say ish because I am not sure if it will continue to do so.
In my mad dash to try and save the tree I cut it back. Trimmed the hell out of the leafs and stuck it in water until I could get the supplies to root it. Cue a visit from my sister, family stuff and work stress... And it was still in the glass of water.
Upon checking it last night it has some roots starting to grow.
All of the new roots are on only one side of the tree. Which I'm not worried about. I just want the thing to live. I am going to wait until the roots actually look like roots before I put it into real soil. No it won't be the right soil. Yes, I'm a sinner.
So, providing it lives I at least know I can root branches I trim and maybe sell the babies later on.
