nice tree hector! i think a change of angle and a different pot might bring out more of the potential this tree has 
Some responses:
The left trunk is about an inch thick. It isn't likely to bend over even if I buy it a new outfit, 3 Cowboys, some Eccies and a dozen roses.
The foliage pad covers part of the trunk because it creates a break in that straight trunk line.
The front of the tree is the front because there's a massive scar at the back of the tree, where 2/3 of the original plant was removed.
I'm trying to imagine how a change of angle would look on this one. Can you elaborate?
As for a pot; I'm on the lookout for a cream or pale tan unglazed pot around 400 x 270 x 75mm. It will turn up if I look long enough.
