Varieties with drooping buds should leave inner buds, oblique branches should leave outer buds, and the cut should be flat. After flowering in the second year, 2 ~ 3 buds are left at the base, and dense branches and overlapping branches are cut off after germination.
In early April, when the new shoot grows to 15 ~ 20cm, 8 ~ 10 leaves are left for coring, which can make 2 ~ 3 buds emerge from the cutting mouth, and the lower part will grow thick and short branches and differentiate into short branch flower buds. In mid-May, new buds grow quickly. For the new shoots with a length of 15 ~ 20 cm, the second coring was carried out, and 10 ~ 12 leaves were left for coring. From the end of May to the middle of June, the new shoots that are growing too vigorously are cored for the third time, and at the same time, redundant buds or new shoots that are too dense are removed.
In the future, axillary buds will continue to form flower buds. At this time, the budding branches, the overgrowth branches and the vegetative branches will be gradually thinned according to the requirements of modeling. After the trees grow, according to the age and potential of the trees, young trees are lightly cut, weak trees are heavily cut, strong branches are lightly cut and weak branches are heavily cut every year. The withered and weak branches of diseases and pests should be thinned in time, and 2 ~ 3 buds should be left on the side branches of the main branches for short cutting. Long branches with leaf buds should be planted after autumn, and 5 ~ 6 buds should be left for upper pruning.
According to the size and natural form of potted flowers, the plum piles processed by potted flowers draw lessons from the old saying, "Mei Mei has fun, straight without posture; According to the plum blossom appreciation standard of "taking strangeness as beauty, rightness as beauty, sparseness as beauty and concealment as nothingness", appropriate old roots and stems are selected for pruning, and if necessary, methods such as knife cutting, brown silk binding and steel wire winding can be used for modeling.
