Flower trees will be pruned at different times due to different varieties, planting locations and planting purposes. Pruning is usually carried out during winter dormancy and growth.

How to prune the branches and leaves of flower trees

Flower trees need to remove branches that are not growing well in time, and prune dense branches, diseased branches, dead branches, clustered branches, cross branches and unsightly branches that appear in the growth process, so as to promote the overall growth of plants and enhance the ornamental value of flower trees. 1. If you want to prune a flower tree, you should prepare it from its seedling stage. When the seedlings grow to a certain length, the branches with the highest growth and the most vigorous growth should be pruned to avoid excessive growth at the top of the plant and promote the development of lateral branches, which is beneficial to the overall beauty of the plant. 2. When the main branch of the short cut flower tree grows to a certain stage, it needs to be cut short to stimulate the branch germination. 3. Cut off harmful branches such as diseased branches and dead branches in time, cut off infected leaves and burn them to prevent plants from being infected with serious pests and diseases. 4. Prune useless branches. Flower trees grow and develop rapidly, so we can often prune and cut off unsightly and shapeless branches, such as cross branches, overlapping branches, horizontal branches, messy branches, curved branches and so on. So that plants can grow according to the shape we want.

Pruning skills of flowers and trees

The best pruning time of flowering trees is September-165438+1October. Prune dead flowers and leaves in time and concentrate nutrients for the germination of new branches. In the process of the growth of flowering trees, it is necessary to remove the core, wipe the branches and thin the branches, so that the nutrients can be concentrated on the well-growing branches and leaves to promote the growth and flowering of plants.

Pruning and flowering of flower trees

Adventitious buds on branches sprout new branches. Too many branches will consume a lot of nutrients and need to be cut off in time to promote flowering. You can prune flowers once a year in autumn, so that nutrients can be concentrated on thick and healthy branches to promote the next year's flowering.

Matters needing attention in pruning flower trees

When pruning, the direction of cutting buds determines the growth direction of future branches. Therefore, it is necessary to consider restoring the overall shape of plants for pruning. If you must enlarge the crown, you must leave the outer cutting buds. If you need to fill the vacancy in the inner room, cut the buds inward. In order to slow down the growth of seedlings, it is necessary to leave weak buds as cutting buds. If the tree is weak, choose the one with full and strong buds.
