Pruning of Osmanthus fragrans should start from the seedling stage. Because Osmanthus fragrans has the habit of clumping, it is necessary to keep the strongest branch as the main branch at the seedling stage of the plant, cut off the remaining branches, remove the weak and retain the strong, and carry out single-stem plastic surgery.

With the growth of osmanthus fragrans, it should be pruned once a year after the flower falls. Before plants enter the room in winter, cut off those thin, dense branches with pests and diseases, so as not to affect the flowering of plants in the next year.

Pruning and trimming of young trees

Prune osmanthus trees again in the young tree period, and prune the side branches next to the trunk to ensure the top advantage of osmanthus trees and the growth of the trunk. If the height is acceptable at this time, the top of the trunk can also be cut off, which can ensure that the osmanthus tree maintains a certain height. Secondly, it is necessary to properly prune the lateral branches and surrounding branches of osmanthus trees, leaving thick branches and pruning the branches that grow too densely.

Pruning of Osmanthus fragrans at Initial Flowering Stage

Osmanthus fragrans trees need to be pruned again when they enter the initial flowering stage, and the pruning at this time needs to be bigger. At this time, osmanthus trees need pruning, on the one hand, pruning too dense branches, pruning longer branches; On the other hand, it is necessary to prune branches that are forked or seem to grow weakly; At the same time, the dead branches or diseased branches of osmanthus trees should be cut off in time to reduce the waste of nutrients and make osmanthus trees grow better and more ornamental.
