Seedling pruning

The cultivation of Milan flowers needs to be pruned and shaped from the seedling stage, so that the grown-up Milan flowers can maintain a more beautiful appearance. We need to cut the young Milan flower short, which is also the first maximum pruning in its life. The short cut only needs to maintain the stem length of about 20cm. After the truncation, Milan will grow a lot of new branches from around the truncated position, and then we can often prune it to produce a round and plump Milan flower.

One of the characteristics of Milan flower is that after many years, the branches in the lower part of the plant are easy to die. If you keep the trunk too long, it will grow up all the time. After the bottom of the plant dies, a stem will go straight up, which is very incongruous and unattractive. So we need to cut it short in the seedling stage to prevent this from happening.

After the seedling stage is cut short, we have to prune it every spring and early summer, which can constantly promote the growth of new lateral branches around its stem, and the plant can maintain a beautiful and plump appearance for years. A beautiful Milan flower will always accompany our home.

Pruning during growing period

Pruning during the growing period can promote the germination of more lateral branches, maintain the growth morphology of the plant, and prune some withered branches and leaves, which can enhance the ventilation and light transmittance inside the plant. after pruning, the plant will grow more healthily.

If some branches grow too fast, it will disturb the beauty of the plant, we need to prune those fast-growing branches to maintain the overall plant shape, but also reduce the excessive consumption of nutrients. However, we can enlarge the shape of each pruning, and don't trim it to the same length as the first time, so that all the branches have no leaves. If we enlarge a circle of pruning, the overall shape can be enlarged, the leaves will be more luxuriant, and there will be more flowers.

We need pruning before flowering, and we also need pruning after flowering. Pruning before flowering needs to be carried out half a month in advance, which can promote flower bud differentiation and grow more flowers. Post-flowering pruning requires pruning some failed flowers. Sometimes the flowering branches will dry up in a high temperature environment. We can prune them off to prevent bacterial infection. If the summer temperature is higher than 35 ℃, we should not trim it. If it needs to be trimmed, it is best to keep it in a cool place for a week before we can restore the original way of maintenance.

Daily pruning

Every spring, Milan flowers are pruned, mainly to cut off some dead branches, diseased branches, thin branches and over-dense branches, so as to enhance the ventilation and light transmittance of the plant, and leave more nutrients for other branches to grow. The same is true of daily pruning. Once diseased branches and leaves are found, they all need to be dealt with in a timely manner. For some branches that emerge from the soil, we need to maintain the shape of the plant and cut it off. If it is conducive to plant modeling, we can pinch it when it grows to a certain height.
