How to trim asparagus?
Label: Trimmed asparagus passed a small market a few months ago and accidentally saw a florist selling his own flowers and plants. There are not many varieties, and asparagus accounts for the majority. Ask the price, two yuan a pot, it is really cheap. So I carefully selected a pot with a good shape to take home. After changing the pot, I put it on the windowsill facing north in my bedroom. From then on, I didn't pay special attention to it, and watered it when I took care of other flowers and plants. I didn't expect this little guy to give me a big surprise-before long, he began to sprout new branches from the roots! The first few roots are still "rules", and when they grow to the height of the old branches, they stop, and the whole tree looks good. However, with the start of heating, the temperature at home has recovered, and the growth of asparagus has begun to get out of hand. The new branches and stems grow rapidly until they are twice as tall as the old branches. But in this way, the shape of the whole asparagus loses its previous elegance and becomes a bit messy. So I decided to cut off the extra-high new branches, and the cut new branches began to sprout lateral branches, and the asparagus regained its previous charm.

When it grows to a certain height, turn the flowerpot around and let the other side shine. In this way, the clouds of the whole asparagus tree naturally stretch and the shape is full. Besides, asparagus is sticky. If you want an asparagus that can climb up, it's simple. Just insert a thin board next to the new branch and it will climb up. If you want it to be a shape that extends sideways, you can directly cut off the new branches as I did before, and use its phototaxis to cultivate your favorite "symmetrical" or "asymmetrical" shape according to your own preferences. It is best to consider how to choose in advance before pruning, so as to achieve the ideal form of "clear hierarchy and orderly height". After two or three years of maintenance, the old branches of asparagus will be burnt and dried up more or less. We can cut them off and keep the new branches; Or simply cut off all the branches and let them grow new branches again and start all over again. However, the prerequisite must be to ensure correct conservation and supply of fertilizer, water and nutrients, so that new branches can flourish.
