How to prune 1 and prepare tools after azaleas bloom?

Before pruning azaleas after flowering, sharp scissors, plant ash, carbendazim solution, gauze and other tools should be prepared, then the gauze should be soaked in carbendazim solution, and the scissors should be wiped and disinfected to prevent the cut plants from being infected with germs.

Step 2 trim the residual flowers

After gardenia blooms, it is necessary to cut off the residual flowers at the base first, which will help to preserve nutrients and enhance the aesthetic feeling of the plant, and then cut off the dead leaves and weak branches together, so that nutrients can be fully concentrated on the trunk.

Step 3 trim and reshape

After azaleas are in full bloom, in addition to pruning residual flowers and dead leaves, they can also be pruned and reshaped as a whole, mainly aiming at the dense branches, horizontal branches and long branches inside, which will greatly affect the ventilation and light transmission of azaleas and need to be pruned in time.

4. Preventive measures

When pruning azaleas, pay attention to speed quickly enough, and don't hesitate. Otherwise, excessive friction of the cutting mouth will affect the growth of branches, and after pruning, a layer of plant ash should be applied to the wound to avoid dehydration and wilting of plants, which is not conducive to safe overwintering in the later period.
