Pruning during the growing period is usually done to trim plums to see which branches are not suitable for preservation, so they are all cut off, which can also promote lateral growth and increase the number of flowering branches.

In daily pruning, people need to prune those poorly growing branches and maintain the plant shape to make it in the best condition.

After selecting the flowerpot, you need to load the soil, and put some elastic catkins on the bottom of the flowerpot. After the soil is installed, water it thoroughly, put it in the sun and let it dry.

3. Branch cutting

Cut the sunny branches as cuttings, and the new branches had better bring some old ones. After June, the semi-lignified new branch does not need to bring the old branch. Cut the cuttings, the old branches should be thick, and there are new branches with leaves. Cut the cuttings with a sharp knife, leaving two leaves with two large leaves, and the small leaves with two leaves and one bud, about 7-10cm, cut off the base of the branch, the cut mouth is uneven, the tissue is damaged, cut off the damaged tissue with a sharp knife, and cut the base into a bevel with one knife. The picture below is the arranged branches.

4. Soak the branches

Prepare the rooting powder according to the instructions and soak the base of the cuttings.

5. Cutting method

Punch the hole obliquely with a clean (sterilized) stick, 7-8cm deep, and then bury the cuttings to expose the nodes of the remaining leaves. Insert a basin, pour some cold boiled water or barreled water, so that the matrix is in close contact with the base of the cuttings, conditional can cover the basin outside, easy to manage.

As for the larger basin, you should first loosen the basin soil around the basin to reduce weight and friction, and then grab the root and bring it out.

3. Upper basin

After the plant is removed from the pot, remove part of the soil from the root and do not move the soil near the root. Put rubble in the new basin and you can plant it. When putting on the pot, add soil while planting, take the plant in the left hand and add the soil with the shovel in the right hand. Don't bury the soil too deep, it's easy to lack oxygen.
