How to dwarf the bamboo-leaf begonia

Topping

If we want to dwarf the bamboo begonia, we must first carry out necessary treatments such as pinching and topping during its growth period. If you take care of it in time, limit its growth and control its height when it just starts to grow, so that the plant can send out a large number of new branches, so that the shape of the whole plant can become fuller, and it can grow short and strong. In this way, the whole plant will become more beautiful, so this is a good dwarfing method.

Perform trimming and shaping

Proper pruning and shaping can prevent the plant from growing too tall, and it can also allow it to grow more side branches and control its height. First of all, when it grows to a certain height, in order to make it look better, we should prune its crown appropriately to allow it to grow more side branches. When the new branches grow very densely, we also need to cut off some diseased branches and leaves, as well as insect-bitten, weaker, and entangled branches, so as to reduce nutrient consumption.

Timely Shulei

In addition, when it sprouts and is about to bloom, in order to allow it to grow more new flowering branches, it is also necessary to properly remove the buds and thin out the buds, especially when more flower buds grow on the new branches, it is even more necessary to thin out the buds, so that it can grow more new branches, make the flowers bigger, and bloom longer. Therefore, these pruning methods can shorten the plant and make the whole plant look better.

Control water and fertilizer

When the plant grows to a certain height, we must reasonably control the amount of water and fertilizer to allow the plant to grow better. This can reduce the phenomenon that too much nutrients will only cause it to grow dryly. Therefore, appropriately reducing the amount of water and fertilizer can also achieve a good dwarfing effect, so that the entire plant will not grow too tall, affecting its appearance and becoming particularly ugly.
