1. When is the best time to plant the lucky tree?

The lucky tree is suitable for planting in March.

It likes a warm and humid environment, and the temperature suitable for its growth is between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius. Therefore, when planting the lucky tree, you should choose a relatively warm and stable temperature. Suitable temperature helps the lucky tree take root, sprout and grow healthily as soon as possible.

2. When is the best time to transplant the lucky tree?

The lucky tree needs to be transplanted every time after sowing, cuttings and layering. Generally speaking, it is better to transplant the lucky tree on a sunny day in spring, as transplanting at this time can allow its seedlings to take root quickly. If you need to change the soil and pot, it is more appropriate to transplant it in autumn, which can increase its survival rate.

3. When to prune

The lucky tree is best pruned in late winter and early spring, when the outside temperature gradually rises and the growth environment becomes more suitable.

4. How to prune the lucky tree

Pinching: Pinching is also called topping and removing the tip. Pinch off the top of the main stem or side branches of the lucky tree with your hands, or cut it off with scissors. This can prevent the plant's branches from growing too tall and allow them to sprout and grow at the lower end.

Head pruning: This pruning method is suitable for large lucky tree potted plants. The large lucky tree potted plant is relatively tall, so pruning it means cutting off the entire upper part of the plant. After wiping the head, lower the height of the plant, which will make it easier to place and improve its aesthetics.

Thinning: Thinning is suitable for use when the branches of the plant grow too densely. Those densely growing branches, excessive leaves and flowers should be cut off. This not only enhances ventilation and prevents excessive consumption of nutrients, but also improves the ornamental value of the plants. When thinning the lucky tree, pay attention to pruning along the direction of its branches to make the plant look sparse and moderate.
