    Azarra serrata is evergreen with clusters of yellow flowers that are fragrant late winter early spring. It can be pruned back but does suffer from prolonged winds but then bounces back.

    Should we cut off this sucker?

    Thank you both for your help. As it's just a branch, then there's no urgency to cut it off and we'll see how the tree does over the next few weeks.
