Red sage pruning time

In spring, the salvia should be topped and pinched. In autumn, after the flowering period of the salvia, the withered flowers should be cut off in time to promote regrowth. Therefore, the time for pruning is generally in spring and autumn.

After the salvia sprouts new buds in spring, it needs to be pinched and topped to control the plant height and allow it to sprout more branches. After the flowering period ends in autumn, the remaining flowers should be cut off in time to promote flowering again.

Begonia has vigorous growth and is very resistant to pruning. Pinching should start from 3 to 4 true leaves, and generally needs to be pinched once every half a month until the flowering period stops. After pinching, the plant will have more branches and be fuller, but it also consumes more nutrients, so fertilizer needs to be supplemented. New buds will appear and it will bloom 30 days after pinching.

Red sage grows fast when pruned

After the flowers of the impatiens completely fade, they lose their ornamental value and the plant will slowly wither. In winter, the plant will completely die. You can pull out the plant after the flowers fade and wait until the spring of the following year to sow again.

Pruning and flowering of red sage

1. Topping in spring: Impatiens is generally propagated by seeds. After sowing in spring from March to April, small plants will grow quickly. During the spring growth period, when there are 4 to 5 leaves, the plants can be toppled. Generally, topping is required 3 to 4 times in spring, which can promote the sprouting of side branches.

2. Autumn flower pruning: Autumn is the peak season for the impatiens to bloom. Generally, the impatiens will only bloom once. Reasonable pruning can promote the plant to bloom a second time. After the flowers of the impatiens fade, the remaining flowers should be cut off in time to save nutrients, and appropriate phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied to promote its second flowering.

Notes on pruning red sage

During the growth process, the red bean should be pruned and topped, which can effectively control the height, promote the differentiation of lateral buds, and form more flower buds. After each flower withers, the remaining flowers should be cut off. Watering and fertilizing should be done in time. The red bean can sprout new branches and bloom again, which can effectively prolong the flowering period.
