Question
I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL BARREL CACTUS ,BUT IT IS SO TALL IT WONT FIT IN MY BOW WINDOW ANY MORE . CAN AND HOW SHOULD I TRIM THIS PLANT, CAN YOU JUST CUT OFF THE TOP?


Answer
Dear Brian,

If it is a barrel cactus, you can cut the top off, but it will changes it's appearance dramatically. It may also branch from just below the cut area. Yes, you can cut off the top, but you are just delaying the inevitable. Hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Greg
