How to prune the branches of potted osmanthusTime: Potted osmanthus is best pruned in spring, and March is the most suitable month for pruning. When growing osmanthus potted plants from seedlings, you should select a main trunk. When the plant exceeds a certain height, it needs to be topped to promote the sprouting of side branches. During the growth period, cut off diseased and dead branches, overly dense branches, and weak branches, and appropriately shorten the branches that grow crooked or develop uncoordinatedly. If any overgrown branches, branches inappropriately positioned, or messy branches are found, they should all be cut off to promote ventilation and light transmission. When pruning osmanthus and shaping it, you can prune it according to the height you need. Generally, the height of potted plants with high ornamental value will not exceed 80 cm. The main trunk can be shortened to allow more branches to grow around the trunk to achieve a better ornamental effect.
