Well, Let me pull out my bonsai checklist here...

[ ] Interesting Movement?
[ ] Taper?
[ ] Aged bark?
[ ] Interesting branching?
[ ] attractive surface rootage?
[ X ] good or unusual species / variety?

Since it's a 1/6, I would say that it may not be worth your effort as bonsai, but could make an enjoyable container or patio tree. If you plant it out in the garden, the prognosis may change in a few years, but it is unlikely to change much in the confines of a pot.

Regards,

Matt
