Leggy Money Tree

My Money Tree is growing well, but it is starting to look “leggy.” Can I prune it so it will grower wider instead of taller?

Not really. Money trees are normally carefully grown to be desireable when they are small. Face it, its going to get big and become like a normal tree.

Best you can do for it, is to plant it outside somewhere, and get a smaller one to replace it.
