Default Prunning From the Bottom?

how much length of the top part should we keep as a minimum for good growth
of the top part? (discarding the bottom).

So your saying rip out the whole plant, cut and replant the tops?


Yes. With stem plants, I mean. Don't try this with an Amazon sword. g

Just cutting the top off a stem plant and discarding it, leaving the

bottom, is
called "topping." It's not recommended for many stem plants like Cabomba;

it
makes the plant straggly and unattractive.
