How to prune cypress
Step 1: Select the appropriate season.

Prune Platycladus orientalis at the end of winter and lower the height before the sap rises the trunk. Overgrowth to the thinnest, pruning in midsummer, and then new growth points to grasp the front of the dormant trees in winter. Prune to the ground before flowering and germination in early spring. Decorative pruning and transformation of high fences into mild fences can be carried out in late spring after flowering.

Step 2: Trim to the right position.

When pruning from top to bottom, it is necessary to reduce the overall height and cut off the buds at the joints far above the branches. This will prevent the growth of stems and buds. Hint: Susan Patterson, our expert consultant in horticulture, said, "Surrounding trees, rather than concentrating on one part, will help to keep pruning." Sparse Platycladus orientalis and cut off the main branches of Hsinchu near the junction. This will encourage new growth points, not vertical outward, and let more sunlight shine on the heart of the tree. Trim the ground and remove the secondary branches and main branches (the branches fan out directly from the trunk. ) Delete these 18 inch parts to avoid tearing the bark of the trunk. After receiving training in the use of chainsaws and hand saws and safe cutting techniques, we hired a professional tree artist to complete this task. Rebuilding the hedgerow of Platycladus orientalis should be combined with pruning and thinning of the top style. Cut off all branches at a moderate angle of 30 degrees to prevent damage to the junction of buds.

Step 3: Clean the pruning tools.

Check whether your pruning shears are in good condition: sharp, clean and running smoothly. Dust and oil shears lightly before pruning. Tip: Susan suggested, "Get rid of all limbs and leaves, and don't leave them on the ground, because they may spread diseases and encourage pests." After each pruning, wipe all bark, sawdust, tree sap and the pruning and leaf cutting residues of closed leaves. When pruning healthy trees, disinfect the pruning between each tree. Use mild Lysol solution, antibacterial mouthwash, such as Listerine, or alcohol to wipe. Loose cleaners and chlorine bleach have been proven to corrode code tools. When cutting dead branches, limbs are not perfect, Lin Musheng, far less than cutting the main branches. Disinfection scissors are used to prevent any infection or moth-eaten from spreading among intact trees. Careful pruning, high-quality tools, pertinent opinions and good judgment.
