Thanks on the advice about the Cypress. I will grow it as a regular indoor plant and do some studying on it's growth.
But please tell me something more about the Ficus. There are 2 trunks of different thickness, and a thin one which may be just a branch growing from below the ground surface. All the trunks are (unfortunately), more or less, very straight but have some taper, good flexibility and a nice development on the main branches origin. I see an opportunity for a formal (or informal) upright?
Do I have to prune the roots now or just plant it into a bigger pot and determine the training style by placing the trunk(s), pruning shoots, shaping branches and trimming some leafs?
How do I improve thickening (horizontal growth)?
Sorry, but I don’t have a better picture for now.
Trunks radius ratio: 7:5:2
Regards
Zarko
