How does rosemary prune its branches and leaves?
Pruning methods of rosemary are mainly divided into plastic pruning and harvest pruning. Plastic pruning refers to the fact that the whole branch appears horizontally during plant growth, which affects ventilation and light transmission. In order to make the plants grow better, it is necessary to prune the poorly growing branches to ensure the beautiful plant shape.
Harvesting and pruning are carried out according to the growth law of harvesting rosemary 3~4 times a year during its growth period. It can be trimmed with scissors or picked directly by hand.
When pruning rosemary, it must be moderate and not excessive. When pruning, we should cut off half the branches as much as possible. When picking and pruning, it should be noted that the juice at the wound of rosemary will be very dry and difficult to remove, so it needs to be protected during picking and pruning to avoid skin allergies.
