How to pinch the longevity flower

1. How to pinch

The pinching of Kalanchoe is usually done from March to September, because when it enters October, it enters the early bud stage. When pruning, branches that are more than 12 cm in height and the new buds at the top should be pruned off to promote the growth and development of its side branches. If it grows too tall, it will affect the overall aesthetics of the shape and even affect the normal flowering of the plant.

2. Precautions

After pruning, the Kalanchoe needs to be applied with an appropriate amount of compound fertilizer to promote the growth of side branches. If it is pruned in autumn, it also needs to be supplemented with phosphorus fertilizer to reserve nutrients for its flowering period. When pinching it, you can trim the withered branches and overly dense branches together to ensure the beautiful shape of the plant.
