Dracaena is a foliage plant, so it should be pruned frequently when cultivated, so that the overall plant shape will be better and the ornamental value will be improved. When pruning, trim the long leaves at the top and bottom of the tree and let its leaves droop naturally, which will be more dignified and decent.

Second, pruning during the growth period.

Dragon's blood has different pruning methods at different growth stages. In the growing period, the relatively weak branches are pruned, leaving strong branches. This will make its nutrition more concentrated and will not be wasted on other branches.

Third, pruning at flowering stage.

Dracaena is a foliage plant, and its flowers are not beautiful. On the contrary, long buds will consume a lot of nutrients. It is suggested to cut off the buds directly. If you want to keep it for viewing, cut off the remaining flowers in time to save nutrition and promote other flowers to bloom better.

Fourth, pruning when it is ripe.

After the dragon's blood tree blooms, it is necessary to prune the branches that have not blossomed, and prune the branches that have blossomed for a quarter, so as to preserve nutrition and promote its better growth in the coming year. Proper pruning can also save a lot of nutrients, which is beneficial to winter.
