Thanks Andy. Its making me thinking of cutting down the variegated I planted in ground. That one seems dull in comparison.
Andy,that huge Rubber Tree that hung over the 880 freeway? The road crew cut it all the way back even with the wall. Like half the tree-swoop- gone just like that.

This is the one in your avatar, right? It'll grow back really fast. They're known for when being cut back growing back ten times faster.

I'm still have to cut many of my Ficus tree back. I just concerned when they're cut back they're going to grow back so much faster! The same goes for my tropical guava (Psidium guajava.
