How to prune jasmine after it blooms

How to prune jasmine after it blooms

1. Pruning method

1. Jasmine should be properly pruned after it has finished blooming. Usually, the flowering branches should be pruned away from the main stem with 1-2 pairs of leaves left. Be careful not to damage the axillary buds.

2. Determine the pruning location based on the growth direction of the axillary buds. Usually new flower buds will grow about 30-40 days after pruning.

3. After pruning, place it in a sunny place and water it appropriately. Don't rush to fertilize it. Wait until it grows new shoots before fertilizing it appropriately.

4. After the flowers fade, you need to pick off the remaining flowers in time and trim the overly long branches appropriately. The long branches without flowers should be trimmed more. It is best to prune on a sunny day, and remove diseased and dead branches together.

2. Reasons for early withering of flowers

1. Excessive watering: Although jasmine likes moisture, it is very afraid of waterlogging. If the amount of water is too much, the buds will easily fall off and the flowers will wither faster.

2. Insufficient light: Make sure there is sufficient light when it is blooming. If you want it to bloom longer, give it enough nutrients and water it appropriately. Usually, proper ventilation should be ensured to avoid premature wilting of flowers.
