# Unsure what to do with this flf, i’ve had her for a few years now and…

Unsure what to do with this flf, i’ve had her for a few years now and have not had very much upward growth aside from new leaves.

A month or two ago I pinched off the top (the brown pointy thing that unravels into a new leaf) as I heard that can promote more growth or splitting, which is what I’d like it to do.

It regrew from the spot I pinched off, but is now kinda off centered and won’t grow another branch off of there.

A professional recommended that I cut it back a bit, so the new growth is sprouting out from a node there.

There is also not much foliage towards the bottom, and I’m unsure if I should do anything about those leaves.
