| Should I prune my enormous one-year-old potted poinsettia in the same way that you advised Billy Wilson of Florida to prune his outdoor poinsettias in Poinsettia FAQ #21? |
| Pruning would be similar for a potted plant but you might start off by cutting it back to about 6 inches instead of 12 to 18 inches -- in Florida the plant s grown as a shrub! They key is in the regular pinching to encourage branching and keep the plant bushy, as well as in keeping it in very vigorous growth throughout the summer. |
