So I have been obsessed with operculicarya decaryi and I went through A TON of trouble to find one, and here it is, in all it’s bushy glory. I was really expecting it to have a tree like shape, with one trunk. I still love it, but I would have preferred it with the common shape. What would you recommend I do with this one to make it look better? It’s 3 feet tall.
Thank you!

It depends what shape you want. These are trees after all. If you want a taller specimen give it all the space and freedom. Want a squatter specimen? Aggressively prune it and put it in much smaller pot. Many people bonsai them. If you are based in the USA, I would check out BotanicWonders.com, they usually have thicker trunked ones for sale
