Branch pruning method of ground-planted osmanthus tree 1, seedling pruning
The best time to prune osmanthus trees for the first time is in the small seedling stage. At this time, you can prune according to your favorite shape, with the thick trunk as the main stem and some side branches as beautiful shapes, but be careful not to prune too much, which will affect the subsequent growth of plants.
Step 2 prune small trees
The osmanthus trees need to be pruned for the second time when they grow to young trees. At this time, if the trunk is high enough, you can cut off the crown at the top to keep the trunk at this height, and then cut off the dead branches and over-dense branches around to keep strong branches.
3, flowering pruning
The osmanthus tree was pruned for the third time at the beginning of flowering. In order to make the flowers grow vigorously, it is necessary to cut off all the overlapping branches, excessive branches, bifurcated branches and weak branches, and at the same time cut off the diseased branches in time to prevent the waste of nutrition and concentrate the nutrition on the trunk.
4. Preventive measures
Osmanthus fragrans should be transplanted in spring and autumn. If the temperature is too high when transplanting too early, the root system will be damaged and the branches will not get nutrition, which will lead to defoliation and withering. Osmanthus fragrans is not cold-tolerant, and it is very easy to freeze to death. Even if it is carefully maintained, it will not bloom in the later stage.
