This is my Portulacaria afra pseudo-bonsai. Originally the plant was growing in the yard but it got too big for its space so DH dug it up and I cut away about 90% of it and potted it last fall. Any suggestions on how I should trim it now? Should I remove the lowest big branch or cut it back shorter? Should I thin out some of the upper foliage? Anything else??? (Maybe take a picture on a brighter day?)
