I'd try and make a bonsai out of it.

Nice plant. I'd have a good look at it and decide what final size you want it to be - based on which yould consider growing the trunk a bit more.

I am with Auk. You probably should let it grow out a bit more. The trunk is a little thin to start creating a bonsai just yet.

i have not done any pruning on this fella in 2 yrs an have fertilized it in the spring each year with a slow release along with some holly tone for evergreens.
should i repot it and push the juice to get a bit mor growth out of it?

Plant it in the ground for a few years.
