How to trim Michelia flowers

1. Cut off unnecessary branches

Overcrowded branches, shoots on the trunk and introverted branches all hinder the growth of this kind of flower. Cut off unnecessary branches such as long, sick and weak branches in order to make them look fresh and not dull. If you feel that the spacing of the branches growing from the trunk of this flower is relatively narrow, even the stout branches should be cut off in order to ensure the balance of its shape. But be careful not to overprune it. After flowering, ripe fruit needs to be cut off to reduce nutrient consumption. Before sprouting in spring, comb the old branches and leaves properly to facilitate the germination of new branches.

2. Adjust the tree shape

Pruning plants should also pay attention to make certain changes to its tree shape, first observe it, and then cut off the outer branches and branches that make the crown a little messy, so as to adjust the shape and size of the tree. For example, if you want to increase the height of the tree or reduce the shape of the tree, you should start with the trunk subordinate node, that is, the upper part of the branch bifurcation, and reduce the number of side branches when you want its shape to have a higher visual sense. when you want to reduce your size, you should shorten the trunk and make sure that the number of side branches is not too small.

3. Optimize the internal daylighting

We can make the inside of the crown blossom by weakening the shading of the branches and improving the sun, ventilation and other conditions. On the basis of ensuring that the number of its branches and leaves can produce enough nutrients, it is moderately pruned to reduce the number of branches and leaves, so that the interior can also receive sunlight, which has a lot of benefits to its growth and development.
