Turn it to face the opposite way and it should sprout out the other direction and prevent the tipping. -Matt Umbrella Plants like even sun so if it is leaning it probably means it gets more sun on that side.

Regularly water and you should be successful. Good luck. Jooles Rita

I have had my plant since 1989, and have a second plant that I obtained by simply sticking a branch into a pot of compost I pruned from the original! Regularly water and you should be successful.

Good luck.

I have many arboricola and trinette, but outdoors in now-10-year-old hedges which have always been hacked back to 3' high several times each year with no ill effects.

It thrives beaufifully in my sun room. So much so that it has grown so high that it tips and I'm afraid it will turn right over. Sticks don't do it. So I would like to cut it down and make another plant out of it, as I don't have enough room to put it into a larger pot. Can you please help me and tell me how to do this. I would greatly appreciate it. Since I never had this type of plant, it has never been pruned. I just love it! Thank you for your help.
