Pruning : Start pruning off some of the growing branches of the bayberry tree from the middle of the branches to promote the growth of new shoots and rejuvenate the weak tree. 3. Pulling branches : Pull the branches of the bayberry tree horizontally to make the crown open and transparent, promote the differentiation of flower buds, increase the fruit setting rate and produce fruit earlier. 4. Ring cutting : Use a knife to make ring cuts on the branches of the bayberry tree, and make sure it reaches deep into the wood.

Tips for Pruning Bayberry Trees Pruning of bayberry trees during the growing season is generally carried out before the autumn shoots of the bayberry trees begin to sprout and emerge. The main purpose is to adjust the tree structure of the bayberry tree, reduce nutrient consumption, and improve the light receiving area of the entire plant, so as to achieve balanced growth of branches and promote flowering and fruiting. Bayberry tree pruning grows fast The pruning of perennial branches of bayberry trees is large, which can stimulate their renewal and rejuvenation. It is mostly used for the renewal of branch groups or backbone branches, and for controlling the auxiliary branches of the crown. Bayberry tree pruning and flowering Through autumn pruning and spring pruning, the bayberry tree can produce fruiting branches, and then pruning away the overgrown branches can transfer nutrients to flower bud differentiation and floral development. Bayberry tree pruning results in more fruits After the spring pruning of bayberry trees, the budding time of spring shoots is later than the flowering and fruiting time, which can increase the fruit setting rate. At the same time, there is enough nutrition supply to make the fruit fully expand.
