How to prune potted Buddha belly bamboo

1. Dwarfing treatment

Only by dwarfing the plant can it maintain a high ornamental value. If the plant is allowed to continue growing, firstly there will not be enough space for growth in the home, and secondly, the side branches will rarely grow, and the plant shape will become not very beautiful. Because it is an ornamental potted plant, only by ensuring a good plant shape can its good ornamental value be maintained. Always pay attention to shortening the top branches, not allowing them to reach a certain height, and keep the branches as short as possible.

2. Daily pruning

When dead branches, rotten branches, and overgrown branches appear during growth, they must be cut off at any time. Leaving these branches to grow will consume unnecessary nutrients and will not be able to supply new branches, thus hindering their growth.

3. Plastic Sculpting

Some bamboo branches that grow weak and slender, have unreasonable growth positions, or are arranged too densely should be removed without hesitation. There must also be a certain composition for the overall shape of the plant. According to the degree of aesthetics, those that do not conform to the overall structure will be removed without affecting the overall shape or destroying the ornamental value.
