When my BOP (seed grown) pushed itself out of its pot by several inches, I pulled it out, trimmed off the bottom ten inches or so with a pruning saw, added some new soil to the bottom of the pot, and put the plant back in. It acted like nothing happened. Then I left it out two winters ago and thought I lost it but it put some new shoots up in late spring. I guess it didn't like ten degrees for a couple of nights so now I drag it back in for winter.
