Q.Rio Dipladenia Cutting
My plant sits in my window over winter. Lost some leaves but not all. Starting to sprout long vines. Should cut those back?

You could cut it back about 6 inches. That will encourage branching and a more compact plant. Plus, indoors they tend to get leggy. You can make more plants with the cuttings. Here is how:
