    Hi Rosie, spring is the best time to cut back, February or March. Is it indoors or out? though i don't think you have to, i feed mine in the summer - mine are indoors. If it's outdoors i think the frost will cut it back for you!! There are lots of threads about P's on here, with lots of good advice. :D

    Yep definitly spring, after the winter frosts have done there worst.
    Then you can cut out any dead wood and cut back to good strong stems. [​IMG]
