Yes, plant it in the garden for 5 yrs or so and let it grow some substance. :D

+Hi Yadibrar
I’m a fan of small leaf type Bougainvillea and I think your tree has merit.
I would first cut out all the long straight branches that are to big to bend, then I would reduce the foliage down (Photo below) with a bit of wiring this could turn into a nice cascade.

I was thinking of a Semi cascade as well

The Virt of Barrys is similar to what I would do, but tilt to the right some more an dreduce the foliage on top a little more
