Nandina domestica pruning timeGenerally speaking, it is better to prune Nandina domestica in late winter and early spring. Spring is the period when a large number of buds sprout and it is also the time when it grows most vigorously. Cutting off some branches can promote growth and maintain beautiful shape. In winter, weak branches and diseased branches can be cut off, which will be beneficial to the fruiting of Nandina domestica. Nandina domestica pruning1. Shortening: In late winter or early spring, choose a latent bud point of moderate height on the plant and prune it short, then let it grow. At the same time in the second year, cut off most of the branches grown in the previous year, leaving only 1-2 branches at the lowest point, and let new buds sprout from the branch axils. Prune according to this method for 3-4 years, and the main trunk will grow taller year by year. 2. Acupuncture. When the new sprout grows to 2 cm long, pierce the stem of the sprout with a needle. Then wait until the new sprout grows to 1 cm and prick it again with a needle. This can make the sprout diameter thicker. Generally, the number of acupuncture does not need to be too many, 2-4 times is enough, which can allow the new sprouts to sprout continuously and have more branches. 3. Prune dead branches and leaves. During daily breeding, you should always check for dead branches and leaves. Once found, they need to be pruned. The purpose of doing this is to avoid nutrient loss and waste. If the branches are too dense or even overlapping, you need to prune some of them appropriately. Nandina domestica pruning tipsSome branches with good growth need to be retained, and some branches that grow poorly need to be cut off. If they grow too densely, you can properly comb out some of the denser branches, leaving the strong ones and cutting off the thin ones. Generally, long-term use of acupuncture can allow new buds to sprout continuously, allowing more branches to form, making the Nandina domestica lush and full of vitality.
