Hey DeepSouth. Another year and another prune. Same plant. I decided to have a only child so have not bought any more DR's. This one has done well for me plus I dont really have the room with all my other plants so I can focus all my efforts on this one.

I just pulled this one out of the pot, trimmed the roots some, new soil, and raised it an inch or so. This is what I have left. I did soak the base in thiomyl for 30 mins. Let it dry some then super glued the big cuts to seal them and hung to dry overnight.

This is what's left. I am conflicted on trimming the top but the branches are getting thin and I dont mind the height but I want to keep a canopy look to it so I thought I would let you take a look. If you think it would be better to trim top perhaps you could make a suggest as to where. I am always uneasy about chopping the top not knowing what the outcome will be. As usual your help is so appreciated.
