Ficus moclame /프랑스 고무나무?

I was captured by the oval leaves and abundance of the tree when I saw it from the new car showroom. Dec of 2023.

I looked up and found it also "the Ficus" family. 

 

I tried to find affordable sizes and prices for more than half a year whenever I could check plants. Mostly sells big and high-priced ones. The 10-inch pot one(below) was the smallest I had ever seen. Almost happened to be bought. It may break the record for expensive plants.

17inch pot about $800, 10inch $60 with tax almost 70. but this is the smallest I saw for every shop I went to.

2024, June. some local small markets behind, I found affordable(6 inch, under $20) and even bought 2pcs. hope to grow 10inch size first.

When I bought Ficus Benjamina Danielle, this ficus was not the Danielle. I was also confused with other sites. 

This is Ficus Microcarpa Moclame. 

I did even air layering one branch, it was success but later both plants were dead by overwatering issues. As other Ficus family, it can easy to propagate, so now 3 small pot also included 5pots.
