Can asparagus fern be pruned? Can the pruned asparagus fern survive in transplants?

1. Is it possible to prune?

During the maintenance period, it is inevitable that the plant shape will be confused, and of course pruning can be carried out at this time. Cut off the branches that are too long, too thick, messy, and weak, and ensure that the branches grow upright. This will also promote the sprouting of new branches and make the plant shape more neat and beautiful. In addition, during the maintenance period, you can frequently change the direction of the flower pot so that every angle of the plant can receive light, which can also make the plant shape more symmetrical.

2. Can it be inserted alive?

Don’t waste the branches you cut off at ordinary times, as they can be propagated through cuttings, but you must be careful about the method and not insert them directly into the soil. Before cutting, you need to make a small cut on the branch and apply moss. When a tumor-like node grows, you can process the branch. Then insert it into moist soil and place it in a ventilated environment without light. You also need to provide a warm environment. It will take about a month for the plant to take root and survive.
