So as promised here are some pics you asked for.
Are You planing to cut that root Petra? Baobab does that, but We normally cut them. Kevin grows lots of baobab , maybe he can explain how he chops them, where , dries them and replants them in spring...
I feel it will look much better if You chop this root...JMHO
I ask lots of questions that sound like suggestions. Please remember I am a inquisitive newbie trying to figure out why You made a particular decision, in order to learn.

Hi Petra,

Please forgive me if I am wrong, but your tree does look a lot like Australian Bottle tree?

Would you be able to take a closer photo of the leaves, please?

Best regards.
