My plumeria is kind of rangy. Don't know how to describe it. The trunk is about 13" tall but only about an inch around AND it has 3 branches, each longer than the trunk-14", 22", 24". They're all good looking, healthy, firm branches but you can kind of imagine my problem. It's top heavy. Can I prune this back without hurting my plumie? I don't want to prune it now since I did get blooms this year! But I'm wondering if I can prune it safely and when would be a good time to do it? Since our growing season is somewhat limited here in Colorado, I'm not sure when to do this. I've got it in a 14" pot. Yellow leaves are gone & lots of new leaves coming in since this April pic was taken. I had put a plastic cover on top of my gravel since my dog thought it was good nibblings. Thank goodness she's decided to leave my poor plumie alone and gave up her gravel snacking ways.
