I have now grown quite fond of it. I trimed it a few weeks back hoping for more red of new leaves, but it has rained here for 3 weeks and not much growth has happened. I put it in this pot about 12 months ago and it is almost root bound already. The only problem with Melaleucas are they grow so fast and I have some insect that likes to chew on them and can leave a plant defoliated over night. This happened to this tree about 8-9 months ago and I thought I would lose it, but it has recovered nicely.
