That is an interesting thought. When does a tree show promise?
Would you say that the real museum pieces, that have been taken care of for hundreds of years and passed on through many generations, have promise? I'm sure saying that would make no sense. It would be like looking at the Mona Lisa and saying: "that may become a nice artwork, sometime in the future".
So, when we look at a young juniper, would we say it is a great bonsai? No... we wouldn't. It may become a good bonsai in the future, with decades of training and lots of knowledge (as Cronic said). So, such a tree has nothing but promise.
Yeah, in that sense, this plant shows promise...

ok..
for this tree to ever have any potential
- have a garden
- wire the tree with some good bends to make it more interresting (long term vision pops in)
- plant it in the garden for a good 10 years
- every year do some rough pruning and wiring with above mentioned long term vision while keeping the foilage close to the trunk
- do so for a decade and maybe it will have potential other than a garden plant
but first off, pray it survives..
