I've had the same debate for the past five years with a serissa I've had for ten years. I just couldn't make up my mind and then . . . last night while trimming branches, I just cut it off!

And I'm so glad I did it. Man does it look better and what was pretty mundane is actually a pretty interesting tree now.

My wife even commented on it, which is highly unusual.

The thing is, your gut is often right and your mind just gets in the way.

As to your decision, I'd cut it off and add some dimension to the remaining pom pom through wiring. I don't think the cut off portion is worth saving.
