How to prune wisteria to make it look good

When is the right time to prune wisteria?

It is better to carry out summer pruning of wisteria before September, that is, in July and August, and then do a dormant pruning before flowering in spring, so that it can recover faster.

Wisteria Pruning Tips

When pruning the main trunk of Wisteria, do not make it too long, and the side branches should be shorter than the main branches. The new branches that grow every year should be properly pruned and topped to maintain the shape of the potted plant.

Pruning branches and leaves: When pruning wisteria, you should prune away those dead branches and small branches, and keep those branches and leaves that grow well. It is generally chosen to prune wisteria flowers before or after flowering.

Wisteria pruning precautions

1. When pruning in summer, if there are flower buds on the plant, be careful not to hurt them. They are fragile and will fall off if touched, so be careful when operating.

2. After winter pruning, place the plant in a place with a temperature between 5-10°C. At this time, it is in a dormant period, and placing it in such an environment is more conducive to its dormancy, which is very good for its growth and flowering next year.
