How to trim the gardenia to look good

When is the right time to prune the gardenia?

The cassia tree can be pruned once in summer and winter, twice a year, the first pruning time is from May to July, and the second time is around December. The pruned branches can also be used for cuttings and planting.

Gardenia pruning tips

Each time you prune the cassia tree, you only need to trim off 2-3 pairs of leaves at the tip of the branch. During the dormant and growing seasons, prune weak branches and branches with poor direction. Generally, leave 2-3 buds on a branch, and also leave 2-3 flower buds.

Pruning branches and leaves: The pruning of jasmine in early winter is mainly heavy pruning, cutting off the poorly growing branches, twigs, and side branches, and shortening the main branches appropriately. In summer pruning, when the jasmine grows new buds, the new buds on the main branches can be removed 1-2 times. After the flowers bloom, the remaining flowers, diseased branches, and dead branches need to be cut off in time.

Precautions for pruning Gardenia

Ventilation: Gardenia likes light and is relatively drought-resistant. After pruning the gardenia, you can keep it in a ventilated outdoor area, which is conducive to its growth and recovery.

Water and fertilizer: When the soil of the gardenia is completely dry, pay attention to watering to promote its recovery. When watering, pay attention to using water that has been dried in the sun, and try not to water the incision. Also pay attention to fertilizing the gardenia in time. When fertilizing, use nutrient solution, and you can also add some nutrient solution when watering.

Prevention of pests and diseases: After pruning, the gardenia should be sprayed with a fungicide. This is because there will be many cuts on the plant after pruning, and the resistance of the plant will be relatively weak after pruning, so it is easy for pathogens to take advantage of the situation. Therefore, the plant should be sprayed with a sterilizing agent every time it is pruned.
