How far back?

New Madison, OH(Zone 5a)

I have always brought my brugs in ..as is. This year they are quite large...and I just don't have the room to do that.
So what I need to know is..how far back can I cut them...so they will still bloom next summer?
Thanks!

Marcy when you cut them back leave at least 6 leaf nodes above the Y. This is where the new growth will come from next year.
I try to leave 8-10 leaf nodes when I cut back because I get some dieback in the winter.

Guess it's getting that time of year. I should have another 2 or 3 months before frost. I also have some that will need to be cut back.
