1. Pruning and cutting of roses after flowering

1. Prune after flowering

1. When you see the roses in your home begin to wilt, you should start pruning them. Don't wait until the flowers are completely withered before pruning, because this process consumes a lot of nutrients, which is not good for the recovery of the roses after flowering and the cuttings of the branches.

2. Generally, rose pruning starts from 1 cm above the second or third pair of leaves on the flowering branches.

3. If the rose plant is relatively weak, you only need to keep 1-2 leaves at the bottom of the flowering branches and cut off the rest.

4. After pruning the rose branches, the wounds must be kept dry. It is best not to get them wet within a week, otherwise they will easily rot. You can choose to apply 1000 times carbendazim solution on the wounds. You can choose to add a small spoonful of compound fertilizer, dig a shallow hole about 3-5cm along the edge of the rose pot, and bury the compound fertilizer in it to rejuvenate the rose.

2. Cuttings of pruned branches

1. The rose branches that have bloomed contain more nutrients, so the survival rate of cuttings is higher.

2. Prune the branches. The cuttings should not be too long, and it is best to be about 1cm-3cm away from the first leaf. If the branches are too long, the first leaf will easily be buried in the soil; if the branches are too short, they cannot be inserted deeply into the soil, which is not conducive to rooting in the future.

3. Soak the pruned branches in 1000 times carbendazim solution for 2-3 minutes.

4. Then take them out and place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry the cuttings. The soil for rose cuttings can be a nutrient soil made by mixing perlite and coconut coir in a ratio of 1:1. When filling the seedling box with soil, be sure to compact the soil, otherwise it will be too loose and difficult to retain water, and the branches will dry out quickly. In order to increase the survival rate of cuttings, you can dip the cuttings in a little rooting water or willow extract before inserting them into the soil.

2. After the gardenia blooms, you also need to trim off those overgrown branches, because only by growing more side branches can the plant become fuller. When pruning, only leave 2-3 layers of leaves on the branches and cut off the rest.

3. After pruning the branches, you can apply some carbendazim on the wound to prevent bacterial infection. After a few days, new buds will grow.

2. Cuttings of pruned branches

1. The pruned gardenia branches need to be processed. The length of each cutting branch should be about 10-15cm, and the lower end of the branch should be cut into a bevel.

2. Prepare the necessary plastic bottles, knives and transparent tape.

3. Soak the branches in potassium permanganate or carbendazim solution for about half an hour, then take them out and place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

4. When drying the cuttings, cut the plastic bottle, but do not cut it completely in the middle.

5. Insert the cuttings of gardenia into the foam plastic board, then add water to the plastic bottle, and then place the foam board in the plastic bottle, making sure the bottom of the branches are immersed in water.

6. Then close the plastic bottle and stick it together with tape. This method can keep the air in the bottle highly humid at all times, making it easy for the plant to take root.

7. When the roots of the gardenia cuttings grow to more than 3 cm, they can be transplanted into the soil.

3. Pruning and maintenance of Kalanchoe

1. Prune after flowering

1. After the Kalanchoe has bloomed, the flower branches and the first pair of leaves under the flowers are basically cut off together. In this way, after a period of time, the Kalanchoe can grow new branches and buds and bloom again.

Before pruning:

2. The master prunes after the flowers bloom, which is basically a shave for the Kalanchoe, leaving only 5-8cm of the main trunk and cutting off all other parts. When cutting, leave a few leaves to allow the Kalanchoe to photosynthesize. Then place it in a cool place to dry, and do not let the wound get wet.

3. After shaving, a lot of small buds will sprout on the branches of the Kalanchoe. When these small buds grow into three pairs of leaves, they need to be pruned. Keep the strong buds and cut off the weak ones to make the plant fuller.

2. Cuttings of pruned branches

1. The pruned Kalanchoe branches can be placed in a vase for viewing, or used for cuttings to obtain more Kalanchoe plants.

3. For the soil for cuttings, you can choose to mix peat soil and granular soil in a ratio of 7:3, and then water it thoroughly.

4. Insert the Kalanchoe branches disinfected with carbendazim into the soil, and then place them in a cool, ventilated place with scattered light. Be sure to keep the soil moist. It will take about 2 weeks for the roots to take root.

4. Pruning and maintenance of jasmine

1. Prune after flowering

1. After the jasmine flowers have bloomed, you can prune them from 2-3 pairs of leaves below the remaining flowers, leaving only 1-2 pairs of leaves on the branches.

2. When pruning jasmine after flowering, it should not be too late. You can start pruning when new buds emerge. If you prune too late, it will cause unnecessary consumption of nutrients.

3. If you find any overgrown branches on the jasmine branches, it is best to cut them off as well. Overgrown branches not only affect the aesthetics of jasmine, but also consume nutrients.

4. After cutting the remaining jasmine flowers, let the wounds dry and then place them in direct sunlight.

2. Cuttings of pruned branches

1. Never throw away the pruned jasmine branches, they are perfect for cuttings! When pruning the branches, it is enough to keep only 2 leaves on each cutting.


2. Soak the cuttings in the carbendazim solution for 2-4 minutes. You can also apply carbendazim directly on the wound and then place it in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

3. Perlite can be used as soil for cuttings. Just plant the dried branches in perlite.

4. Cover the seedling box with a lid to maintain humidity. It will take about a month for the jasmine cuttings to take root. Transplant the rooted jasmine into the soil and continue to care for it.

5. Pruning and cutting of bougainvillea after flowering

1. Prune after flowering

1. After the bougainvillea blooms, if the branches are relatively short, just cut off the branches where the withered flowers are located; if the branches are relatively long, you can cut off 1/3 or 2/3 of the branches where the flowers are located, as shown in the red line in the picture.

2. When pruning bougainvillea, the scissors should be placed approximately 0.5 cm away from the bud point and cut diagonally into sections. The lowest point of the slope is on the same line as the bottom of the bud point, and the upper part of the slope is about 0.5 cm higher than the bud point.

3. If there are two parallel branches, it is best to cut off all the thin branches.

2 Cuttings of Pruned Branches

1. Select the bougainvillea branches after flowering, trim them into cuttings with a length of about 10-15cm, leave about 2-3 leaves on the upper part of the branches, cut the lower part of the branches at a 45° angle with a knife, then soak them in 1% rooting water for 1 hour, and then put them in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

2. Cut the floral mud needed for cuttings into small pieces with a length, width and height of 2cm and 4cm. Because floral mud has good bonded air permeability, it is very suitable for cuttings. If you don't have floral mud, you can use sponges instead.

3. Insert the dried cuttings into the floral mud block, with the insertion length being about 2/3 of the floral mud block, and then soak the floral mud block in water.

4. Place the flower mud blocks after cuttings in a tray, then cover it completely with a plastic bottle and place it under diffuse light for maintenance. Once you find that the floral mud is dry, water it immediately, otherwise it will cause the leaves to wilt.

5. After about a month, you can see white roots coming out of the floral mud, which proves that the grafted bougainvillea has taken root.

6. Place the rooted bougainvillea together with the floral mud block in a flowerpot for maintenance. The floral mud block does not need to be taken out to avoid damage to the root system of the bougainvillea. After that, you can apply fertilizer every 7-10 days to promote vigorous growth of bougainvillea.

6. Pruning and cutting of geraniums after flowering

1. Prune after flowering

1. After the geraniums have finished blooming, trim off the remaining flowers in time. This can not only avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption, but also produce more geranium seedlings, which is really killing two birds with one stone!

2 Cuttings of Pruned Branches

1. Cut the pruned geranium branches short, with each branch about 10-15cm long, and keep at least one pair of leaves.

2. Punch a hole in the bottom of a disposable paper cup and fill the cup with sand.

3. Plant the geranium cuttings in coarse sand. After about half a month, you will see the geranium taking root.

4. After you find that the grafted geraniums have taken root, remove them from the pots and wash the geraniums with coarse sand in a bucket of water to remove all the coarse sand.

5. Cut the cleaned geranium seedlings into the flowerpot and then water them thoroughly.

6. After that, place the geranium in the sun for maintenance. Pay attention to shade during the hot summer season. Water it after the soil in the pot turns white.
