When is the best time to prune Endless Summer?

Endless Summer Pruning Time

Endless Summer can be pruned at any time, but spring is the best time to prune it. Normally, it can be pruned twice a year. If it is the second pruning, it is recommended to prune it in winter when the temperature is low and the leaves fall.

Endless Summer Pruning

When pruning Endless Summer, you should choose older branches, because the old branches will grow very slowly due to the influence of temperature. At this time, cutting off the old branches at the roots of the new branches will be beneficial to the next blooming of the plant.

Endless Summer pruning methods and key points

1. Since Endless Summer can bloom on both new and old branches, and blooms continuously, even old branches cannot be pruned casually.

2. Be sure to wait until new branches grow before pruning. If it is a newly planted Endless Summer or the plant is relatively small after it grows, it should not be pruned because its flower buds take a long time to form.

3. Just cut off the weak branches at the bottom of Endless Summer and only keep the thick branches, because the thin branches will not be too big when it blooms in the second year, and there is no practical point in keeping them.
