When is the best time to prune Milan?

Milan can be pruned in all seasons. Heavy pruning is done in spring to grow more side branches. In summer and autumn, the main focus is to shorten the overgrown branches to facilitate ventilation and concentrate nutrients for flowering. In winter, the main focus is to remove weak branches and inner branches to increase light transmittance.

How to prune Milan

Milan is usually pruned once in spring when it is moved outdoors. Diseased and insect-infested branches, overcrowded branches, and dead branches are cut off to concentrate nutrients on the remaining branches and promote flowering. During the growth period, the branches protruding from the crown are cut short to make the plant grow horizontally and expand the crown.

Milan pruning tips

When the Milan flower is a seedling, the main trunk can be cut to only 15-20 cm. During the growing period, the side branches are generally pruned seven days before and after flowering. Normally, the Milan flower should be placed on an outdoor terrace to ensure that it receives sufficient sunlight to promote growth.

Milan pruning precautions

Milan should remove diseased and dead branches at any time, which is more conducive to light and ventilation. Pruning is generally done within a week after flowering, and it is generally not suitable for pruning during high temperatures in summer.
