How to prune the arrowhead flower

1. Pruning method

1. Bud removal: When pruning the Epipremnum australis, in order to avoid nutrient loss, it is necessary to prune off the side buds on the main stem, otherwise it will hinder the normal bud formation of the plant.

2. Prune the growing point: The height needs to be controlled during its growth period. In most cases, it is controlled at around 30-40cm. Therefore, when it grows to this height, the growth point on the stem needs to be pruned, so that its stem will grow very strong.

3. Thinning: Some plants grow very densely and have many main stems, so they need to be thinned out reasonably. Usually, 3-4 main stems should be retained and the rest can be cut off.

4. Prune old branches: Some branches that have bloomed will become gray-brown or gray-white. When they become hard, they will not bloom again, so such old branches need to be pruned.

2. Precautions

When pruning it, use clean tools without bacteria. If the scissors are too dirty, the bacteria on them will infect the plant through the pruning cuts. Therefore, it is best to disinfect before use.
