Princess Flower can be encouraged to produce multiple stems if you pinch out the very tips of each stem throughout the growing season. This will encourage the development of new flowering stems. To maintain health and vigor, prune lightly after each bloom cycle. If yours is very overgrown, remove old, and non-productive branches early in the season, before new growth begins. This will help renew your plant by encouraging healthy new flowering stems and branches.
