When does the Jacaranda bloom and how to prune it to make it look best?

1. When does it bloom?

It blooms between May and June every year, and has a high ornamental value when it blooms. The tree is full of purple flowers, and the leaves are green, soft and transparent, making it very suitable for taking photos. It is usually easier to bloom if you keep it in the south, where the climate and temperature are more conducive to its growth. Sometimes the flowers bloom in May and then bloom again in July.

2. How to trim

1. Pruning time: Pruning is usually done during winter dormancy, when the number of leaves is small to reduce damage. However, some flower lovers will prune their flowers between January and February, which is also suitable.

2. Pruning method: Jacaranda should not be over-pruned or pruned too hard. Pruning is mainly for maintenance, which can promote better growth next year and reshape the plant. Just cut off the withered and diseased branches and leaves, shorten the overly long branches, and shape the plant. Be careful not to make the wounds too deep, otherwise the later appearance will be affected and become ugly. In addition, if the plant is too tall, the crown should be pruned and the branches and suckers on the crown should be cut off.
