Pruning methods of sweet-scented osmanthus bonsai

Pruning is one of the main methods of bonsai modeling of sweet-scented osmanthus trees, and it is also an important means to maintain the modeling results. reasonable pruning measures can not only make the tree shape beautiful, but also improve ventilation and light transmission conditions, reduce diseases and insect pests, and make bonsai flowers more and dense. Pruning should run through the production and maintenance of sweet-scented osmanthus bonsai.

Why is the bonsai of sweet-scented osmanthus trees trimmed?

When pruning, the cluttered cross branches, overlapping branches, parallel branches and opposite branches should be adjusted, that is, one of them should be cut or thinned. For the branches left behind, they can grow stout because of the concentration of nutrients. When the cultured branch grows to a suitable thickness, it is pruned with strength to shorten it. Give birth to the second branch. When the second branch grows to a suitable thickness, it will be cut again. In the future, the second and fourth branches will be treated in the same way. Usually two twigs are left on each branch. The twigs are long and short. After years of pruning, the branches are short, stout, vigorous and powerful, and gradually form the required tree shape.

The pruning of sweet-scented osmanthus trees includes picking, cutting, thinning and injury and other measures. Picking, that is, picking hearts and leaves. During the growing period, the tender tip of the new shoot is removed and called heart-picking. Coring can promote axillary bud growth, how long branches, inhibit height growth, is conducive to bonsai shape beauty; leaf removal is to remove part of the leaves, can promote the germination of new leaves. Truncation is to truncate the branches of the current year, and after the truncation, the medium and short branches will increase and the mother branches will be thickened. The so-called branch thinning means cutting, and cutting means dense branches, which is conducive to branch modeling. Sparse. It refers to thinning, cutting the overdense branches from the base, which is helpful to improve the ventilation and light transmission conditions. Promote the exuberant growth of remaining branches. Is the sweet-scented osmanthus tree branches for harsh injury, ring peeling, twisting, twisting and taking branches, etc., sweet-scented osmanthus tree bonsai can take this method to promote flowering.

How to trim the bonsai of sweet-scented osmanthus trees during the cultivation period?

The so-called cultivation period refers to the pruning and planting of bonsai sweet-scented osmanthus trees. To the period before processing. The length of this period has something to do with the modeling method, such as to be processed into a natural tree shape, the training period is shorter after stereotyping and pruning. If the method of storing branches and cutting dry is used, the time will be longer. Because the branches have to be pruned many times before they can take shape, it takes a few months or even a year to trim twice.

After the bonsai of sweet-scented osmanthus trees cultivated with stumps, the trunk and main branches have been determined. What needs further processing and pruning are the secondary branches and the finer tertiary branches. The basic points to be mastered in the processing and pruning of these branches are: a branch should have a certain degree of curvature, and each branch should be divided into length and length in order to be beautiful.

The pruning of branches should also pay attention to the emergence of buds. According to the requirements of modeling, one of the axillary buds is selected, the second is the alternate buds are determined according to the direction of the branches, and the third is that the longer overgrown branches of the internodes are generally cut off, and the fork branch is cut off.

How to trim the sweet-scented osmanthus bonsai during the viewing period?

The pruning during the viewing period refers to the pruning of sweet-scented osmanthus trees after the bonsai is formed, in order to protect and maintain the beautiful shape of osmanthus trees. This kind of pruning is long-term. A large number of them must be done well.

The bonsai of sweet-scented osmanthus trees used for viewing flowers should be strongly pruned after blooming and failing. Generally, only 2-3 buds are left on the branches, and the branches are cut short. New buds that grow from branches in spring and summer should be removed in time if modeling is not needed. General branches grow to 20 cm, individual branches grow to about 30 cm, the top of the branch should be cut off, the length of the branch should be controlled to facilitate the differentiation of flower buds.

The bonsai of sweet-scented osmanthus trees can be pruned all the year round, but the best pruning period is still in the spring before sprouting, because the temperature is not high and the sap does not flow quickly.
