Is there anything that could be done to straighten it out...

have you looked at its roots lately? does it need a bigger pot? my instinct would be to put it back upright, in a deeper pot if necessary, and @Plants4Prez said, use a leaning stick. did this tipping happen all at once or gradually? i would worry that it will eventually flip the pot
I haven’t looked at its roots but could give that a try. It was leaning when I got it from the nursery so just thought it was pretty normal. But i didn’t notice it being too constricted at the base then. I thought about using a stick but didn’t want to damage it possiblly. The pot is pretty heavy with gravel sized rocks mixed in the soil so i dont think it would flip over any time soon at least.
It is not unusual I think. Especially if it has received too little light for a period. It probably won't grow more at the base and will only get longer.
I got this problem with mine, and when I finally got it the light it needed it got so top-heavy it couldn't keep itself up anymore😅 I was afraid it would snap by accident by some point, so I ended up deviding it and planting the peaces. So now I have a bottom part with lots of new sprouts, and a healty top part that actually also flowered this year😄🌵🌵

@HeartyCreambush Hi Jordan! I'm in San Antonio as well. My guys are doing the same thing. I'm going to check on my roots when I get home and possibly repot and stake up if necessary. Thanks for posting! Hopefully we'll get them acting right! 😁
