# I need help. I pulled this out of a dumpster years ago and it had…

_Publicado por Jodi el 2024-08-25_

I need help. I pulled this out of a dumpster years ago and it had already been badly pruned and abused. It’s been going strong for me for years but in the last few has gotten leggy and now the middle part is kinda knotted. I’ve pruned some branches back that were earlier to see where a node is and had success. I want to prune these two leggy branches WAY back but I’m scared and I don’t know how far back I can prune it. Any one been through this? Any advice is welcomed! I can add more pics if it’s too hard to tell from these.

Is this a buckeye?

it’s some variety of money tree. I’m not sure what a buckeye is… 😅
