Pruning methods

Pruning periods are divided into winter pruning, spring pruning and pruning after flowering. Winter and spring pruning is done after the rose leaves fall and before they sprout. It is necessary to prune the healthy branches lightly to ensure the yield of flowers. Rose bushes or areas with poor fertilizer and water conditions, weak growth, and many old branches should be appropriately pruned to achieve the purpose of concentrating nutrients, promoting the sprouting of new branches, and restoring growth; pruning should be done after flowering, after the flowers are harvested. It is mainly used to thin out the honey branches and crossed branches in the bushes with vigorous growth and dense branches, but the pruning should be light, otherwise it will cause imbalance between the underground and the above ground, leading to adverse consequences.

Pruning techniques

Plant development

Although newly planted plants will still bloom, their branches are slender and short, the flowers are small and the number of petals is small, making them unsuitable as cut flowers. During this period, in addition to removing dead and diseased branches, pruning work should also be carried out at any time to prevent the plant from wasting nutrients. Until thick branches develop from the base of the plant, and after pinching to form main branches, these thin branches are gradually cut off.

Update Pruning

Rose is a shrub. After the main branches are cut, their growth potential gradually weakens over time. Therefore, the old main branches must be eliminated at regular intervals and new main branches must be cultivated to maintain growth potential and plant yield. When pruning, first cut off the old branches with weak growth, retain 3 to 5 youngest main branches for each plant, and then shorten the remaining main branches to 120 cm high. To promote the growth of new main branches at the base of the plant.

Period Adjustment

The length of rose cut flowers and the number of days required from pruning to flowering are closely related to the pruning nodes. The flowering branches developed from low-node axillary buds have many nodes, long branches, and higher quality, but the number of days required from pruning to flowering is longer. On the contrary, the higher the pruning node, the fewer nodes and shorter branches of the flowering branches developed from the axillary buds, but the number of meshes required from pruning to flowering is shorter.
