1. Why do you need to prune?During the growth process of the miniature coconut palm, in order to make its overall shape better, it needs to be pruned. As the miniature coconut palm grows, the number of leaves on the lower part will gradually increase, and the plant will grow taller and taller, making the whole plant appear swollen. If you trim it on schedule, it will affect the aesthetic appeal and make it messy and unsuitable for display. When pruning miniature coconut palms, you can cut them short in the spring. This can prevent the overly long branches from growing taller and taller, and on the other hand, it can make the branches stronger. During the pruning process, useless buds can be removed by pinching. To ensure that the plant is not affected, care should be taken not to tear it when pruning. In addition, you can also cut off the extra or overly yellow leaves and branches. This can make the shape more ideal, but you should also note that there is a limit to pruning. If you cut off too many, it will not be conducive to its growth. 2. Time for pruningBasically, this plant can be pruned all year round. It grows most vigorously in the warm spring and summer. At this time, if it is pruned properly, new branches will soon sprout from the plant. However, pruning can also be done in autumn and winter, but the sunlight is not particularly sufficient and the temperature is relatively low, so the plant will grow relatively slowly, so new branches will not grow easily. 3. Precautions when pruningWhen pruning this plant, be careful to keep a relatively large distance between the cut and the buds on the stem nodes, otherwise the plant will easily wither. When trimming, be sure to ensure it is smooth and without any tearing. You can grind it flat if necessary. In addition, in order to have a better ornamental effect, you can trim and shape it at any time. You can also cut off the branches and dead branches that affect the appearance of the miniature coconut palm, depending on your personal aesthetic taste. |
