There’s not enough leaves on her. She needs every one of them. At this point when she doesn’t need them anymore, the leaves will turn yellow and drop off.

Hey OGG, The only ones I would Trim off would be a “few” of the ones on the “very” bottom that are starting to wilt. Your plant looks good for now as it has nice coloring however I’d look in on them daily & observing those leaves as soon as they start to yellow to a certain point snip them off as you don’t want the plant to give energy to something that’s going to die off anyway and can give that energy to the rest of it. I usually wait for 50%/60% of the leaf to yellow then clip it off, the rest of your plant leave alone it looks great :sunglasses:

Possible “stake” out the branches, spreading and supporting against wind damage.
Spread out and tied.
