Gingerose--I think I read the same item you did about cutting back. When mine bloomed this year--around Thanksgiving (pic attached) --I took off one or two segments from every branch that flowered. It is now putting out a whole new set of buds! It never rebloomed this quick before nor nearly as heavily. I am glad I tried it now--I suffered a bunch of doubt after I saw how big a pile of leaves I had removed. But I have a few rooted now and shared the rest with several people.
