1. Short-cut Yushu stops growing during dormancy, and it needs to be pruned properly at this time. If you want to cut off some long branches, you only need to keep the branches around 10-25cm, which can help it survive the winter better. 2. Proper maintenance of diseased branches and timely pruning of diseased branches and leaves is an important step. If not pruned, it will infect other branches and leaves. When diseased branches are found during breeding, they can be cut off at any time. 3. During the maintenance of Yushu, the nutrients provided may be uneven, so there will be dense branches and leaves. This kind of dense branches and leaves need to be loosened and trimmed in time to make the plants grow more evenly and have a more beautiful shape. 4. In order to increase the ornamental value of Yushu, the branches and leaves that are unsightly can be cut off, especially the cross, messy and dense branches and leaves, which should be trimmed according to the specific situation.

Matters needing attention in Yushu pruning

Yushu should not be watered immediately after pruning. Keep the wound dry, ensure the ventilation of the environment and help the wound heal better. If the pruned branches are strong and unwilling to throw away, they can be cut off.
