I have an Indian Bean Tree in my small garden which is growing quite tall. I would like to know when and how to prune it please? I looked on Google but it was'nt very clear.

 

Thank-you

    I have seen these pruned back to a stump, yearly.

    Hard prune and you will get more dramatic foliage on vigorous shoots!

    I've seen them more or less pollarded quite effectively.
