What should I do if the branches of winter jasmine are too long?
1, pruning
The branches of the winter jasmine are too long and need pruning. Pruning time is usually after flowering. At this time, the long branches should be shortened so that each branch has 2-3 buds, which can promote it to grow more side branches and make it have more flowers in the coming year.
Step 2: Trimming appliances
When pruning the excessively long branches of Jasminum nudiflorum, it is best to use a pruning knife special for gardening. Such sharp scissors can make the wounds of plants smooth, which is beneficial to the healing and growth of their wounds. Note that scissors need to be disinfected before use to prevent plant wounds from being infected with germs.
3. Cutting
The rooting ability of the branches of Jasminum nudiflorum is very strong. We can carry out cutting propagation on the excessively long branches, cut off the leaves at the bottom of the branches with a length of about 12- 15cm, and then cut them into the substrate, keeping the substrate slightly wet, and then take root in about 15 days.
4. Maintenance management
After pruning the long branches of winter jasmine, it is necessary to maintain them carefully for a period of time. At this time, it is necessary to avoid strong light irradiation and avoid splashing on its wound when watering, otherwise its wound will rot easily. After the wound of the plant is healed, it is necessary to strengthen the management of fertilizer and water so as to flourish.
Through our introduction, I believe everyone has a deeper understanding of what to do if the branches of winter jasmine are too long.
