I would propagate it now to help shape the mother plant and get a sturdier and more bushy plant 🤩  
If it was mine I would cut it almost in the center of the plant. Then it will branch out nicely.

Thank you Michelle, do you know if I have to remove the flower buds when propagating it?  
If so I might want to wait a little since I’ve been waiting a while for it to bloom

Yes, you will need to remove them when taking a cutting 🫣 But maybe enjoy the blooms first and then Prune it?
