How to propagate and prune the millennium tree

How to propagate and prune the millennium tree

1. How to breed

1. Cutting method: One of the commonly used propagation methods of the elm tree. The advantage of cutting is that it retains the characteristics of the plant, so there are certain requirements for the original plant. It is best to have strong branches and leaves and no diseases or pests. The time for cuttings is usually from June to October. Cut a branch from the top of the plant, with a length of between 10-15 cm, remove the lower leaves, and insert it into the sand.

2. Layering method: The genus Eupatorium can also be propagated by layering. The time for layering is generally in May or June. Choose a relatively strong main stem and ring-bark it 20 cm from the top. The width of the ring-barking is about 1 cm. Then wrap the ring-barking area with moist moss. It will generally take root in about 40 days. When the temperature is right, you can separate and plant them.

2. How to trim

1. Pruning during the growing season: The pruning of the thousand-year-old wood is mainly concentrated in the growing season. It is easier to recover after pruning at this time and it is also easier to shape. First, cut off the old and weak branches, then thin out the branches appropriately, and prune from bottom to top, so that it looks more beautiful.

2. Pruning during the dormant period: When the cycad enters its dormant period, do not prune it too heavily, otherwise it will be detrimental to its recovery in growth in the second year. Just cut off the withered and yellow branches. If the plants grow unevenly, you can also cut back the lush parts.
