How to prune dahlias

2. Pruning flowers

Because dahlias have a relatively long flowering period, the flowers will bloom almost continuously if properly cared for, so it is necessary to promptly trim and remove the remaining flowers to avoid wasting nutrients and affecting the opening of new flowers. If you want the flowers to bloom more beautifully, you can leave the top bud and two side buds and cut off the lower buds. This will help supply all the nutrients to the upper buds, making the flowers bloom larger and more beautiful.

3. Pruning leaves

If yellow leaves or leaves that have been infected by pests and diseases appear, they must be pruned in time, otherwise it is easy to cause infection.
