How to trim the rainbow jade when it grows taller

Habits and characteristics

The overall growth rate of rainbow jade is relatively slow. In daily maintenance, water and fertilizer should not be too heavy. Rainbow jade is relatively resistant to drought. When the soil is dry, it can be watered, and it must be watered thoroughly at one time. At the same time, a good ventilation environment must be maintained. In winter, the amount of water should be reduced. Under normal circumstances, rainbow jade will begin to grow irregularly 3 years after planting, and the growth rate will also be accelerated, so pruning should be done before that.

How to trim

If the stem of the rainbow jade is too high, the leaves are too dense, and too many leaves fall off naturally, it needs to be pruned to maintain the appearance and shape of the rainbow jade. Generally, the branches are pruned and the main trunk is left. There is no need to prune the rainbow jade plant unless it is growing too tall. Natural growth is the best. However, if it starts to grow too tall, it must be pruned in time. Small rainbow jades rarely grow too tall. Only very large ones will grow too tall. So-called pruning means beheading. The pruned branches can also be used to propagate rainbow jade. If the long style is too high, you can also trim it at the waist according to the height you need.

There is no technical content in pruning rainbow jade. First, prune it for a long time, and second, prune it in the waist when it is too high.
