Here's what you need to know to prune an Angel Wing Begonia:
- When your plant is around 6 inches tall, gently pinch off the top growing shoot to encourage bushier growth.
- Regularly remove any dead or dying leaves or stems.
- Reduce the main stem to a desired height when your plant gets leggy. Be sure to cut just above a leaf node to promote new branching.
