I have a curved plumeria branch that I'll be planted for rooting. The main trunk is curved and the upper branches are not pointing up (was cut from a side branch from the mother tree). I'd like to plant it so the trunk is vertical but then the branches will be facing sideways. Also the entire thing will be lopsided since there's no branches on the opposite side.

Thinking maybe I can secure the trunk with a stake tied to it and gradually tension the top branches with plastic garden tie tape to stakes so it straightens over time. Any thoughts?
