Ouch is right! If there is any truth to bonsai being cruel to trees, I have flat out tortured that one. These swamp maples are pretty tough. I'll bet that one, with its strong will to live, will make it in the ground even planted deep.
Here's a pic of another one that I've been easier on. It's got a nice trunk but gets screwed up where the branching starts. I can see this one going back into the ground if I can't improve this area.
