My albutilon is relatively young and is heading for the sky! It is developing lower leaves, but should I prune it to make it branch? I'm not very good at knowing where to cut when folks say "top it" and such. Also where would I cut my red passion flower to make it branch? Thanks in advance for your help...and please give simple instructions! LOL...I'm not good at chopping...if it's green, be thankful is my motto!

I know they say to trim abutilon to make it bush out. Just pinch off the tips of the shoots. It's a fast grower - if you get carried away it'll grow back.

Not sure on the passion flower. I think it will branch on it's own. Maybe someone else can help.
