Pruning after flowering.

Pruning method of adult limb accompaniment tiger thorn plum:

It can be carried out in 6 to 7 months after flowering, and the diseased branches, long branches and thin branches can be cut off, and the pruned branches can be used as cuttings to propagate new tiger thorn plum potted plants.

Pruning method of juvenile tiger prickly plum:

Pruning should be based on the formation of the skeleton as soon as possible, when the seedlings grow to 10 cm, a part of the top branch can be cut off to promote the side branches, and then when the side branches grow to a certain height, then cut off the top of the branches, and promote the side branches again to form the basic backbone branch frame.

Shaped potted tiger thorn plum:

In addition to pruning individual branches that protrude and destroy the form, it is generally possible to prune lightly or without pruning, as long as attention is paid to proper coiling and shaping.

In fact, in many cases, flower friends want to prune the tiger thorn plum because the tiger thorn plum plant is larger, and in desperation, they do it. Tiger thorn plum has the habit of flowering on the top branches, so pruning can promote the branching and can achieve the purpose of more flowering. Timely pruning is more beneficial.

However, be careful not to get pricked by when pruning.

Although pruning can promote branching and more flowering, it is also necessary to ensure that the plant shape is beautiful when pruning, which can be carried out in 6 and 7 months after flowering, and cut off the diseased branches, long branches, and thin branches.

For the seedlings of tiger thorn plum, pruning should be based on the early formation of the skeleton, but the pruning should not be too excessive. When the seedlings grow to 10 cm, part of the top branch can be cut off to promote the side branches, and then when the side branches grow to a certain height, the top of the branch can be cut off again, and the side branches can be promoted again to form the basic backbone branch frame.

When the seedlings have grown 4 or 5 branches, the seedlings can be shaped, tied into a ball, or a flower screen, or a flower basket, etc., and the branches are properly pulled, coiled and tied, so that they can develop in a directional way.

For the tiger thorn plum that has been formed, except for a few prominent destruction of the formed branches, it can generally be lightly cut or not pruned, just pay attention to the appropriate coiling and shaping. If you want to make a new branch from the branch, you can bend the branch in the opposite direction and tie it, and new branches will soon grow at the bundle.

When the seedlings grow to 10 cm, topping pruning can be carried out to remove the leaves of the top part to promote the growth of side branches. When 4 or 5 branches have grown, they can be pruned to remove the branches that affect the overall growth. After flowering, the overgrown branches need to be shortened, and the old roots need to be properly pruned when repotting in the spring.

Before the formation of the skeleton of the tiger thorn plum, when the seedlings grow to about 10 cm, they can be pruned early, and they can be fixed, and some of the leaves at the top can be removed, which can promote the growth of side branches, and when the side branches grow to a certain height, they can be topped again.

When 4 or 5 branches grow, the branches can be pruned and shaped, and the branches can be properly pulled, bundled, and pruned off the branches that affect the overall growth. For the tiger thorn plum that has been formed, it can be properly brightened and cut without too much treatment.

At the end of the tiger thorn plum blossom period, some branches may be pruned appropriately. First of all, the branches that grow too long need to be shortened, and some uneven branches also need to be shortened, so that the tiger thorn plum can produce more flowers and grow better in the later stage.

The growth rate of the tiger thorn plum is faster, it needs to be changed every 1 2 years, the pot can be changed in the spring of each year, after the tiger thorn plum is taken out of the previous pot, the senescent roots need to be properly pruned, pay attention not to hurt the taproot, after the pruning is completed, the wound of the tiger thorn plum can be sprayed with carbendazim solution for disinfection treatment, and the wound can be re-potted after drying.

Pruning tiger prickly plum can start from the pruning time, pruning part, pruning degree and other aspects.

1. Pruning time.

Under normal circumstances, the pruning time of the tiger thorn plum is in the growth period and flowering period of the tiger thorn plum, and the young plants can start pruning after 4-5 branches. After the formation of the tiger thorn plum needs to be pruned 1-2 times a year, in spring and autumn.

2. Trim the parts.

When the tiger thorn plum is in the growth season, the pruning parts include stunted flower branches, long leaves, etc., especially the withered branches and leaves, which will absorb nutrients from the healthy parts of the plant, and will seriously affect its appearance. After the flowering period, the residual flowers must be cut off as soon as possible, so as to effectively reduce the loss of nutrients and promote the rapid growth of branches and leaves. When Tiger Prickly Plum suffers from pests and diseases, it is necessary to cut off the branches and leaves that have been diseased in time to reduce the spread of pests and diseases.

3. Degree of pruning.

When pruning the tiger thorn plum, it is necessary to master the degree of goodness, to carry out personalized pruning according to the growth height of different plants, and in general, to maintain the balance of the plant, remember to prune too many branches and leaves. Excessive pruning will not only make it very unsightly, but will also affect the growth of the tiger prickly plum. If you want to make the tiger thorn plum more beautiful, you need to prune it through its overall shape, and you can cut it by straight drying, curved drying, etc., which greatly improves the ornamental effect of the tiger thorn plum.

Precautions after pruning

1. After pruning, it is placed in a warm and humid environment for breeding, and the temperature is required to be about 20, which can promote the healthy growth of its roots and plants.

2. The tiger thorn plum that has just been pruned needs to be watered appropriately, but not too much watering to avoid causing water accumulation and causing rot at its roots.

3. After pruning, it is not possible to directly carry out light, and it needs to be placed in a cool and ventilated position to breed, and wait for it to return to normal growth before photosynthesis.

1. Topping: When the seedlings grow to about 10 cm, remove some of the leaves at the top. 2. Shaping and pruning:

Properly tow and tie the branches of the tiger thorn plum. 3. Flowering pruning: Remove dense flower buds and cut off branches that are too long, crossed and overlapping.

4. Precautions: Wear rubber gloves when pruning tiger thorn plum to avoid pricking your hands.

1. Topping

When the seedlings grow to about 10 cm, they will be topped, and then the plant will be able to grow side branches, and when the side branches grow to a certain height, they will be topped again.

2. Shaping and pruning:

When the plant grows 4-5 branches, the branches are properly pulled and bundled, and the branches that affect the overall appearance are cut off, while for the tiger thorn plum that has been formed, it does not need to be treated too much.

3. Pruning during flowering

After the buds of the tiger thorn plum appear, it is necessary to remove the densely growing flower buds in time to promote the concentration of nutrients, which is conducive to the large and colorful flowers, and then the branches that grow too long and overlap are shortened to make the tiger thorn plum bloom more flowers.

4. Precautions

When pruning for tiger thorn plum, because the branches of the plant have thorns, you need to wear rubber gloves to avoid pricking your hands, and after pruning, the branches will be burned intensively, and then the wound is sprayed with carbendazim solution for disinfection.

For seedlings that have just been planted in pots, they need to start pruning when they grow to about 10 cm in height, and pluck the tops in time to cut off the part above the top to promote the growth of side branches next to them. When these side branches have grown to a certain height, the top branches on the side branches can be cut off to promote the whole plant to be full and lush. Wait for the seedlings to grow gradually, and after 4-5 branches have grown, the excessively long branches can be shortened.

For the adult tiger thorn plum, the main thing is to deal with the branches, cut off the long branches, diseased branches, and thin branches on the plant, so that pruning helps to promote the growth of branches, and can also accumulate nutrients, so as to achieve the purpose of promoting flowering. In addition to pruning the branches, it is also necessary to shape them to maintain a good aesthetic appearance. For the cut branches, they can be used to grow new plants from cuttings.

Pruning after the end of flowering is also crucial, and to promote the number of flowers, cut the long branches short at the end of flowering, leaving 2 branches on each branch.
