How to prune the thorn plum?
Rosa davurica has the habit of flowering at the top of branches. In order to make it blossom more, pruning can be used to promote it to branch more and blossom more. For seedlings, pruning should be based on forming skeleton as soon as possible. When the seedlings grow to 10 cm, the tops of branches can be cut off to promote the development of lateral branches; After that, when the lateral branches grow to a certain height, the top of the branches will be cut off, and the lateral branches will be lifted again to form a basic backbone branch frame. When you have 4-5 branches, you should design a long-term cultivation goal in advance, or tie it into a ball, a flower screen, or a flower basket, and then erect a pole bracket according to the set goal, and properly pull, bend and tie the branches to make them develop directionally. For the bound Rosa davurica fruit, except for some branches protruding and damaging the shape, it can generally be lightly cut or not trimmed, just pay attention to proper bending and shaping. This is because the coiled branches also stimulate the apical advantage of plants; If you want to expose a new branch in a certain part of the branch, bend it down so that the top of the branch is lower than the bend, and a new branch will soon grow near the bend. Pruning of Rosa davurica is usually carried out on the 6th-7th day after flowering.
