u can pretty much cut it where ever u want but the sap can cause skin irriation so u will want to wear gloves and put a piece of napkin on cut area to soak up the sap so it doesnt drip everywhere.u can stick pieces of the tree that u cut off directly into soil to start new plants…some take some dont. i wouldnt cut plant until spring the longer days will encourage new growth.
