Prune potted azaleas carefully
Many flower lovers are looking for how to prune azaleas after flowering, thinking that post-flowering pruning can help the next blossom. In fact, this view is wrong. How to prune potted azaleas is not after flowering, but should be combined with the overall situation of the plant.
First of all, flower friends should know that the buds of rhododendrons are terminal, that is, they conceive buds at the top of the branches. if they are pruned too much, the result will be to affect the next blossom. I believe flower friends do not want to see this happen.
Therefore, the pruning of azaleas depends not only on the growth, but also on the season. If you need post-flowering pruning, the main work is to remove the residual flowers at the same time, properly cut off disease and insect branches, weak branches, control only long branches, can not carry out too much pruning.
In addition, even if it is not after the flower, pruning should also pay attention to the season, generally summer is the dormant period of azaleas, at this time the growth is also basically stopped, this time is not suitable for pruning, need to be put in a cool, ventilated place to keep alive.
Of course, there is another situation in potted rhododendron pruning, that is, the plant type is no longer good-looking and needs good pruning. We can thinn branches during the growing period and cut off all branches that hinder growth and tree shape, so as to improve ventilation and light transmission conditions. Concentrate nutrients to enhance growth; and to cut short the branches that rise above the crown and the long branches growing in the empty decadent places, in order to form and maintain a good plant shape.
It can also be shrunk properly at the same time to stimulate the sprouting of robust new branches, or to make use of the overgrown branches, which can be cut short and renewed.
