Question
I recently purchased a home w/some 8 to 10 ft cactus plants that are growing through the screen that covers my patio. I need some instruction on how to properly trim them back 3 or 4 ft.

Answer
Bill,

That would depend on whether or not they are cactus or Euphorbia (looks a lot like a cactus, but isn't). Any chance you can send me a picture? The process is a little different and i want to make sure I give you the right info. Send a pic to greg8365@hotmail.com.

Sincerely,

Greg
