It still comes right back. Think about what you are trying to accomplish. Do you want it slightly smaller, or a lot smaller. Normal pruning is to remove old growth and crossing branches. They send out new growth that reaches about a meter in a year. -- Dan Espen |

Plants tend to put on really leggy succulent growth if cut back too hard and you might not want that sort of look. Generally, the time to prune shrubs is after they have flowered. |
