Collected mullberry bonsai

Here is a shot of a mulberry that i collected earlier this spring around northern kentucky. It Has been trimmed twice since and repotted once. Not too bad for its first year. It has 1 tiny secondary trunk that I have left for now. I'm excited to see what the plant does next. I'm also trying to root some cuttings.

Ficus bonsai

I purchased this little ficus at meijer less than a year ago. I have it planted in a deep pot currently to get the roots healthy before I eventually cram it into a pot much smaller. I'm not sure if it will tip over because of being planted on a killer slant.
