At this time, the trunk of the single-stem osmanthus tree does not leave thick branches and thin branches, but can stay; Dense osmanthus trees can leave thicker branches. When the height of the trunk is suitable, choose and leave more main branches on it. All selected branches should be lightly cut, destroying their original consumption center, improving the transportation direction of nutrient solution, providing nutrients for the growth center at the top of the trunk, promoting the high growth of the trunk, and making the trees directionally cultivated according to the cultivation purpose. On each branch, other branches may not be pruned, except that competitors appearing with the selected extended branch need to be controlled and pruned. When cultivating single-stem trees, if sprouts are found at the base of the trunk, they should be cut off as soon as possible, so as not to affect the growth of the trunk, concentrate water and nutrition, promote the development of the upper branches, and form an ideal single-ten tree; If clustered osmanthus trees are cultivated, some buds can be cut off as appropriate.
Finishing in molding process
When the osmanthus tree enters the flowering age, the shape is basically completed. After that, we can combine seedling transplantation to deal with the relationship between growth and flowering and continue to improve the tree shape. When pruning, the peripheral branches that are too dense should be thinned; Take back the long branches; For overlapping branches, cross branches and thin branches, they should be retracted or thinned; Dry branches and branches with pests and diseases should be cut off. This can form a canopy structure with good ventilation and light transmission and beautiful tree posture, and achieve the effect of three-dimensional flowering.
