    Can anyone advise how best to prune this cactus please?

    Is this the one you prune branches that have flowered? I heard they don't flower again from the same branch.

    Thanks

    I agree with Joclyn. I'd leave it as it is, it's simply beautiful!

    I don't grow this plant, but from the responses, I assume pruning is not necessary to induce blooms.
