That is why Sinbad (and Frosty) are in the shrub group due to free branching.

Sinbad is such a great grower in summer but so difficult to keep in winter. I suppose it goes back to their Philippine parent which exhibited the same behavior when I had it for one summer.

I don't mind spending $5 on a gallon pot of Sinbad each year - it grows quickly and makes a nice focal point anywhere you put it.
