Holly PruningPruning holly trees can improve their overall ornamental value and reduce nutrient loss. Pruning dense branches can increase ventilation and light transmission, which can reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests and help elm trees grow healthily. Holly Pruning TimeThe best time to prune holly trees is in spring, specifically in March each year, which is before the early spring buds sprout. Holly trees need to be pruned twice a year. Propagation of Holly Trees by CuttingIn order to make the holly tree grow more luxuriantly and have a fuller and more beautiful shape, the best time to prune it is during the growing season. Pruning in the cold winter is not suitable. It is mainly done in March and April in spring, around July in summer, and around October in autumn. How to prune holly treesHolly trees are mainly pruned for thin and bent branches that are not growing well. Generally, about one-fifth of the branches are cut off, leaving only the flower buds. In addition, they are pruned into suitable shapes according to needs. Generally, appropriate pruning is required based on the growth conditions and crown shape of the holly. After pruning the holly into an ideal shape, new branches will soon grow out. Because holly has a very strong growth ability, if it is not pruned, the already made holly shape will be easily destroyed. When pruning, also pay attention to pruning dense side branches, increase light transmittance and ventilation, and reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests. Precautions for pruning holly treesHolly trees will have wounds after pruning, and measures to prevent infection need to be taken, otherwise it will cause branch blight. If symptoms occur, spray medicine for treatment in time, and apply a little quicklime on the wound to prevent infection. |
