hello - I have an umbrella plant that was started from a cutting. I have had it for about a year now and it is nicknamed "Rocky" due to it being knocked over several times while rooting in water, suffering loss of new roots and still it kept coming back !! Ultimately it was potted and though it took a little while it did settle in and has been doing fairly well. Now it is over 1 ft. tall and has new growth at the top of the plant. Ive read these can grow quite tall ( many feet if allowed ) but can also be pruned and shaped to the desired size. Right now it lives as a kitchen counter plant but has reached max height for that location. So i am faced with either moving it and allowing it to grow vertically or attempting to control its height in hopes it will fill out in the lower bouts.
Any experience with this plant & shaping / pruning ?? Shrug!
