shakkan 

A Bonsai (minature tree) grown in the slanting/leaning style. As a result of the wind blowing in one dominant direction or when a tree is in the shadow and must bend toward the sun, the tree will lean in one direction.

The apartment had no garden, so she bought a potted, minature shakkan to liven up the place.
