I agree with Crow. Touch that trunk and you will ruin the tree. It isn't "almost" a literati. It IS a literati and quite a nice one at that. Literati is one of the most misunderstood styles. It isn't so much stark, sparse and spare, as it is lean and graceful. This tree is both. I wouldn't worry about the quantity of leaves. They're fine.
