# My ficus is almost too happy. I got him two years ago at Trader Joe’s…

My ficus is almost too happy. I got him two years ago at Trader Joe’s and look at him now. I’ve tried to encourage branching during growing season, but he just wants to be his tree self. I think I need to chop him at the top next year. ✂️✂️✂️

You have to chop the top to get her to branch. I bit the bullet this spring and top cut mine. Look at her now at the end of the season!! Do it!! You won’t regret it! Godspeed!! 💚💚

Yes notching just didn’t work.

Never notched never chopped. How, can't tell you? 8 off shoots to be precise.
