What type of bonsai is this

It's not

Looks like an IKEA to me.

Try using this Forum´s " Search " button and search for "Ginseng" or "Ficus Ginseng". You´ll understand quickly why this plant is not a Bonsai.

First of all welcome to the site, excuse most of this lot they can come across rude.

The ficus ginseng is a good starter plant, you can get used to caring for it without to many problems as they are very hardy, there is a lady at my bonsai club that has a huge one and she enjoys wiring the branches and doing all the usual bonsai stuff...

Go onto www.bonsaihunk.us

There is a tab at the bottom about ficus, it's a really good read although the site doesn't look much click on the tabs and enjoy.
