Where are you located,
@bevinflorida? Whether you are located in northern or southern Florida (assuming you are in Florida) makes a difference in pruning. In northern Florida it will be going dormant soon, so you wouldn't want to prune now. If you are in southern Florida, and temps are warm all year, you can prune at any time if it is actively growing. If I prune mine, I do it in summer after the first big flush of blooms.
That is a beautiful desert adenium you have there!
