Cutting Back a Tall Corn Plant (Dracaena fragrans) for Indoor Winter Storage

Q: We have a variegated corn plant we put outside in warm weather and bring in for winter. It's too tall for the house. Proper way to prune?

Cut at any point along the trunk. Depending on indoor decor, clipping to 3 ft wouldn't be out of question. Given a sunny window, it'll sprout new leaves within 6 inches of that spot. Outdoor sojourn next year stimulates more growth.
