Hi Grace! In time the plant will branch out and it will balance itself nicely, plus the trunk really gets bigger.
Here is mine, just to give you an idea how fat the trunk grows as it gets older, using the sharpie pen as comparison: sorry about the messy leaves, I hardly dig in this container, it is the lair of our black widow spider:
If you can gradually bring it out later when your overnight temps is in the 40's and conditions are dry, it will enjoy it more.
