How to prune the rich tree

shape

The fortune tree planted in the courtyard is generally taller. Its strong vitality and abundant branching ability will make the growth of the fortune tree gradually become larger, and its ornamental effect will be reduced. Although the potted Chinese lucky tree is not as large as the one in this environment, its branching ability is also very strong. Therefore, if you want the plant to have a good ornamental effect, flower lovers must prune it diligently. Let’s learn the techniques below.

Thinning method

Although the potted Chinese lucky tree will not grow too tall, it will gradually become dense in a year or two. In addition, the main branches are relatively low, so the principle of pruning is mainly to retain the well-growing and thick branches as the main trunk, and remove all other weak branches and short branches. The trunk can be pruned in this way, and some of the extraneous branches and dense branches on the upper part can also be pruned. In addition, old branches, diseased branches, and dry branches can also be cut off. The retained density and beauty will achieve the best effect.

Pruning method

Midsummer is the best time to prune the lucky bamboo plant, as it will cause less damage to the plant and it will recover faster. The upright lateral branches around some strong branches can be sawed off directly, and you can choose to retain them based on their strength. The top of the fortune tree can be pruned mainly, and the middle and lower parts can be pruned appropriately or left long.
