When to prune bicolor jasmine

1. Pruning time

1. Pruning after flowering: After the bicolor jasmine has finished blooming, it can be pruned appropriately, mainly to prune away the withered flowers, otherwise it will consume the nutrients in the potting soil. In addition, there are some branches that do not bloom, and they should all be pruned off. There are also some leggy and cross-growing branches on the plant, which are for the shape of the plant and for nutrient consumption.

2. Winter pruning: After entering winter, some diseased branches and leaves on the plant should be cut off, just cut them directly from the base of the diseased branches. If the diseased branches and leaves are not pruned away, bacterial infection may occur.

2. Precautions

1. When pruning, you should use sterilized scissors. If there are bacteria on the scissors, the pruning wound will become infected.

2. Do not water it immediately after pruning, as the wound should not come into contact with water. If a wound comes into contact with water before it has healed, it will easily rot.
