Asparagus is better for its plant shape and leaf-like branches with dense branches and staggered heights. However, after 3 to 4 years of cultivation, the tall vine branches will bloom and bear fruit, which is no longer suitable for indoor viewing and must be pruned. So how to prune asparagus to make it look better? Let’s take a look below!

1. Pot control method

The size ratio of the flower pot to the plant should be controlled at 1:3, which can limit the growth of the root system and keep the plant size unchanged.

2. Remove the growing points in time

When the new buds grow to 2-3_, remove the growing points to promote the regeneration of branches and leaves on the stems and to control them. No vines are allowed to grow, so that the branches and leaves are flat and the plant shape is constantly plump.

3. Make full use of the phototaxis of asparagus

Timely rotating the direction of the flowerpot can correct the growth shape of branches and leaves and keep the plant shape plump and elegant.

4. Covering method

Use hard paper to press the branches and leaves or block the sun, so that the branches and leaves will not touch when growing. When objects block the stem, the stem will turn or bend to achieve the purpose of modeling.

5. Comprehensive application of several shaping methods

(1) Tower shaping

Choose 2-3 tall, tall and beautiful stems. For the main peak, remove each growing point on the stem and set the plant height at 30-35mm. The remaining branches and new stems should not be higher than the main peak. For new shoots, the thickness of the stem will determine whether to remove the growing point. If its stem is thicker than the stem of the main peak, it should be picked. If its stem is thinner than the stem of the main peak, there is no need to pick it and let it grow. At the same time, it is also necessary to continuously adjust the plant shape by combining physical shading methods and the phototaxis of the plant itself.
