These flowers must be cut now, otherwise they will be so ugly in the fall!

1. Asparagus fern

1. The asparagus fern in the picture below only has branches but no leaves. It looks ugly and bare. It has to be trimmed.

2. Top the plant, cut off some of the overgrown and poorly growing branches, control the plant shape, and cut it into a more compact shape.

3. Reduce the amount of watering the day after pruning. Keep the soil slightly dry within a week, otherwise the asparagus fern will turn yellow and wilt. Soon, new leaves sprouted from the bottom, looking much fuller than before. You can resume watering at this time.

2. Money Tree

1. Money tree is mainly for viewing leaves. If the branches and stems do not grow evenly, they will appear messy and lack beauty.

2. Cut off all crossing branches, overgrown branches and parallel branches. It is usually trimmed into a shape with the middle leaves standing tall and upright and the four sides expanding outward in an arc.

3. Many small side buds will grow on the trunk, which should be removed in time to avoid wasting nutrients.

3. Rubber Tree

1. The main thing to appreciate about the rubber tree is its straight, slender stem and its broad and thick leaves.

2. If it is a small rubber tree, you should break off the excess side branches in time to avoid wasting nutrients and make the image more refreshing.

If it is a large rubber tree, it is best to leave only 5 side branches around the main trunk. If there are more, they will overlap too much, look too dense, and easily cause black rot.

3. If the rubber tree has sparse leaves and branches, and only one branch stands out, you can cut off the upper half of the trunk, about 1/3, refer to the picture above. To promote the sprouting of side branches.

4. Monstera

1. Monstera has broad leaves. If you allow it to grow freely, it will grow many leggy branches and leaves that overlap and look messy. Therefore, it is necessary to prune the overgrown branches and leaves.

2. Cut off the tall branches that stand out from the crowd and shorten the plant to make the overall look harmonious. It can also promote the sprouting of side branches and make the shape look fuller.

5. Bougainvillea

1. Cut off branches after flowering, weak branches, and overgrown branches. Cut the plants in layers so that you can still enjoy their shape when they are not blooming in autumn and winter.

2. Thin out the overly dense branches to shrink the entire plant shape and try to ensure that every branch can receive light.

6. Christmas cactus

1. Christmas cactus grows very fast. When 4 to 5 new branches grow on a node, 2 of them should be cut off in time. To store nutrients for flowering in winter and look beautiful and natural.

2. Cut off dense and aging branches to facilitate internal ventilation, otherwise rot is likely to occur. ▲
