Do you want plum blossom bonsai to pick the heart? how to pick the heart?

Pruning is a commonly used means in the process of pot cultivation, mainly to control plant shape, improve plant type, and improve the ornamental value of potted plants. Of course, it may also be to promote the germination of lateral buds, promote branches, let flowering plants blossom more, improve the quality of flowering, and so on. The means of pruning include picking the heart or topping, cutting short and other forms.

Coring is to pinch off the top part of the branch, so that it loses its growth point, so as to control the plant shape, promote branching, and make the potted plant more full and exuberant. So, should the bonsai of plum blossoms be heart-picked? If you need to pick the heart, how can the plum blossom pick the heart? In fact, plum blossom heart picking is pinching the top.

Plum blossoms sprout new shoots in spring, when the branches grow too long, it is bound to destroy the overall shape of bonsai, thus reducing the ornamental value of bonsai. At this time, we need to control the growth of new shoots, so we can take heart-picking or topping treatment at this time. Generally speaking, when the new tip grows to more than 10 centimeters, you need to pick the heart in time. At the same time, if you encounter a branch that is too long, it is also recommended to cut it or cut it short.

If we do not deal with these new shoots in time, the original branches will not only grow longer and easily destroy the plant type, but also differentiate into flower buds in the middle and upper parts, so that the plum blossom flowers blossom only on the branches, because the plum blossom branches are usually formed by spring shoots. If you pick the heart of the new shoots in time, you can give the short and weak branches more opportunities to grow, thus achieving a balanced tree and making the plant type appear more symmetrical.

And after the coring or truncation of the new branches, the plant will sprout more lateral branches, the plant type will naturally be fuller, and the branches and leaves will grow more exuberantly. Even for the next flower bud differentiation is also helpful, so that the blooming plum blossom will not be scattered, high and low, appears to be very messy, but also not conducive to the flowers.

For the traditional plum blossom bonsai, it is usually beautiful with sparse branches and leaves and blossoms. But for ordinary plum blossom potted plants, the more branches and leaves they need, the fuller the plant type, and the more beautiful they blossom. But sometimes after picking the heart, when there is plenty of water and fertilizer, the plant will germinate a lot of bifurcations, which fully shows that our picking of the heart is effective, but sometimes it may be too dense because there are too many newly germinated branches.

Therefore, our heart-picking work may not be in place in one step, and we often need to go through many times to pick the heart and leave the branches, so as to achieve the effect we need. The proper selection of branches can not only make the plum blossom plant type appear dense, but also improve the ventilation and light transmittance of the tree, which is more conducive to promote the growth of the plant, so that the plant always maintain exuberant growth vitality, and the ornamental value of potted plants is naturally higher.
