Should an esperanza bush be cut down every year?

I cut mine down to ground level, or as close to the ground as I can get. They grow back as much as 10 feet tall. I usually trim them back once after flowering to about 4 feet, then all the way back in Feb. March, depending on your seasons. Ralph Williams Houston, TX area.
