1st time grower stupid questions

1st time grower, outdoor desert. i apologize in advance for any silly questions. Ive done some topping,LST & I’ve removed some foliage twice. A few questions.
Did I remove to many leaves?
Currently in the middle of a storm with heavy down poor, & wind gust of 25-40MPH should i be covering up? If so with what?

1st post not sure if this is correct location for this topic

I’m not sure I don’t think you have removed too many leaves
And also you want to use whatever you can find to shield them

Outside plants typically don’t need much defoliation just enough for air flow and to uncover cola sights as needed. If I was you I would find some kind of stake because that winds pretty strong you won’t want a stem to snap off. Dang sorry pal where’s my manners… Welcome to the Canna-Fam Growmie :love_you_gesture::call_me_hand::metal:

Must get considerably hot next to cinder block wall. Has heat been an issue at all? Great looking little bush. Has potential.

Appreciate the tag @Firstimer1299. A little more defoliation than I would have done but she’ll recover. With it outdoors I would let it go from here :love_you_gesture:
