How to prune the branches of Dutch chrysanthemums

Chrysanthemums are very resistant to pruning and can be pruned when they are growing vigorously, which is from June to August.

In the young stage of the chrysanthemum, the top needs to be pinched off to promote the germination of axillary buds, so that the side branches will increase. During the growing period, dense branches, sick and weak branches, old branches, long branches or cross branches need to be pruned away, and unsightly branches also need to be pruned. After the flowering period, the remaining flowers and unopened buds should be picked off.

Tips for pruning Dutch chrysanthemums

When pruning chrysanthemums, you need to keep the healthy branches and prune off the branches and leaves that are not growing well. If the branches and leaves are very dense, you also need to prune off the dense branches and leaves so that the nutrients are concentrated in the remaining branches and leaves, which can promote the good growth of the plant.

Every time you prune the chrysanthemum, do not prune it blindly, otherwise it will hinder the normal growth of the plant. Do not water it after pruning, otherwise it will easily cause the wound to rot. You can spray carbendazim after each pruning to prevent the wound from rotting.
