Is the rootball loose and exposed? You need to fix the three to the pot so the roots don't get damaged, you also need to add soil to cover the roots, I'd also try to add movement by bending the trunk, but I think you'll need thicker wire for that.

I wired the rootball to the pot..watered thoroughly..exposed root ball to find the best front..Haven't filled up pot to top w soil yet..I have a couple bends on the trunk, just not very drastic except for the top, which is bent all the way over towards the center..will take better pics showing the movement. Any other advice guys/gals?
