How to trim a jade bell

Specific matters regarding the pruning of jade bells

The time for pruning the Jade Bell Plant can be chosen in the spring after the flowering period, combined with repotting. This way the entire plant can be pruned.

When pruning, you can trim the aging branches and leaves at the base of the plant. Cut off the yellow and dead leaves to keep the jade bell plant beautiful.

When pruning, you can cut off dense branches or shorten branches that are too long. If the plant is too tall, it should be topped off. This is to suppress the apical dominance of the plant, prevent all nutrients from being transported to the top and inhibit the growth of lateral buds. In this way, the jade bell plant will have the opportunity to grow more branches and become stronger and more lush.

You can do shaping pruning when pruning. The pruning of plant shapes can be determined according to your needs, but the principle is that thick main branches should not be pruned easily.
