For growers, in order to maintain the beauty of the crown of Sophora japonica, especially those long branches, cross branches and overlapping branches that disturb the tree shape should be thinned out, which can not only keep it ventilated and breathable, but also make it more evenly distributed.

There is also a very suitable time for pruning, that is, germination in March-April in spring.
