The pruning of butterfly plum is generally done when its flower buds have just differentiated. At this time, all the weaker flower buds should be cut off, and only the flower buds on the main branches should be retained. How to prune butterfly plumThe best time to prune butterfly plum is generally in May and December every year. May is the growing season of butterfly plum. Pruning at this time can promote the growth of side buds, which is beneficial to increase the number of flowers. The flowering period ends in December, which is the winter when the temperature is relatively low. Pruning branches has little effect on plant growth, and can reduce nutrient loss and help overwinter. If you want the butterfly orchid to bloom better, you should cut off all the flower stalks before the flowering period to reduce the consumption of nutrients by the flower stalks. Generally, you should cut them directly close to the bottom of the flower stalks, so that it can bloom better. Precautions for pruning butterfly plum1. Cut before the flowers: Before the Phalaenopsis orchid blooms, cut off the older leaves, thinner stems, and also the thinner and diseased and insect-infested flower buds. 2. Cut after the flowers bloom: When the Phalaenopsis orchid dies, cut off the dead flowers and branches in time to prevent it from producing seeds. This will consume too many nutrients, which is not conducive to the continued growth of the Phalaenopsis orchid and the large-scale flowering in the next flowering period, and it is very likely to cause the entire plant to wither. 3. Cut the root system: The root system of Phalaenopsis is relatively developed and it grows very fast, so root pruning and repotting are required every year to help Phalaenopsis regain vitality and grow healthily. |
