Hi my name is Alain and I´ve just joined this awesome site. I´ve been lured into the bonsai world for a while and now I finally decided to get things started. You´ll see, I´m Cuban but I currently reside in Spain. The weather I believed to be continental hence humidity might be a problem. Oh, and I´m starting my adventure with a Ficus Ginseng of around 12 years old. I think I´ll be looking for advices frequently in this forum... So, thanks in advance .And I´m posting a couple of picks of my new tree.

Welcome to the Bonsai Empire Forum! That's a very handsome pot and ficus is always a good start as I've recently found out myself. Best of luck!

Thanks JF. It is a true pleasure being around this community. Oh, and yes... It is a beautiful pot indeed.
