Wand Pruning Method

1. Topping and pruning

When the magic wand flower grows to a certain height, it needs to be topped and the top part needs to be pruned regularly. Spring is the most suitable time to do this. Cut off some of the higher branches on the plant and shorten them appropriately. This can also inhibit the top effect and promote the accumulation of nutrients, which can be supplied to the remaining branches, promoting the growth of branches and making them lush and strong. The entire plant shape will also be more beautiful. This needs to be persisted, generally once a year.

2. Remove the remaining flowers

After the flowering period is over, you need to remove the remaining flowers in time and do not let them remain on the plant. Removal can also prevent rotting. After removing the remaining flowers, prune the flower branches. Removing part of the branches can reduce nutrient consumption and accumulate nutrients to facilitate later growth. Some flowers that do not open well should also be removed. Keeping them will only waste nutrients and have low ornamental value.

3. Treat the roots

When repotting every year, you can trim the roots and remove old and rotten roots to restore growth activity and facilitate the absorption of nutrients and water. When pruning, be careful not to damage healthy roots.
