This is Houdini in his new pot and some wiring and thinning out pruning.
It is a Melaleuca parviflora. This is in some contention but until I am proven wrong it stays that name.

It was collected from Southern River a Perth suburb in 1993 so its age can be anywhere between 35/55 years.

+1 here.
One of the elements of a well created bonsai is if you can't work out how big it actually is in a photo, if I'm not mistaken.
