Do you have an interior plant that is getting too large or out of shape to keep over the winter? Consider pruning it back into a desirable shape. Pruning should take place before cold weather sets in so that new growth will fill in and make the plant more uniform and shapely.
If the plant is large and out of shape, severe pruning will not always bring it back to its original beauty. If this is the case, it is best to take cuttings and start new plants which can be controlled and shaped into specimen plants. After the cuttings are rooted, plant them in a 3- to 5-inch pot, using a sterilized potting mix ture. With good care, in a few months' time, you will have a plant that is much more desirable than the plant you started with. Also, you will find that the smaller plants, besides looking more attractive, will take less space and need less care. The extra cuttings that you have rooted can be given away to friends and neighbors as presents or special gifts or they can be sold. That overgrown plant still has plenty of use left; don't throw it away yet!
