How to prune the fragrant vine and how to prune it to the tip when it blooms

Pruning time of vine

There are two main time periods for pruning the fragrant vine. One is in spring, which is the growing season. The growth rate is fast, so it is necessary to top the plant in time to prevent it from growing too tall and also to promote the sprouting of side branches. The second time is to prune after flowering, pruning the dead flowers and old branches to save nutrients and help it recover.

How to prune the fragrant vine

1. Tipping

When we are caring for the fragrant vine, we need to prune it. When it grows to a certain height, we can tip it. Usually, we just need to cut off the top branches. This kind of pruning can save more nutrients, allow the plant to grow more side branches, and make the plant fuller.

2. Pruning branches

The branches of the fragrant vine need to be pruned during its growth period. Generally, the branches that are too long, too dense, or have diseases and insect pests should be pruned away. This will allow the branches inside the fragrant vine to be exposed to more light, while also saving nutrients and ensuring that the fragrant vine can grow better.

3. Pruning after flowering

The fragrant vine also needs to be pruned after the flowering period is over. At this time, the remaining flowers and dead branches should be cut off together. Although the flowers of the fragrant vine have bloomed, nutrients will still be consumed on the branches. Cutting these flowers off in time can save a lot of nutrients and allow the fragrant vine to accumulate nutrients better to recover.
