How to trim mirror grass to make it look good

1. Daily pruning

1. Withered and yellow leaves: It is loved by people because of its emerald green leaves and small and exquisite shape. Under normal circumstances, if the plant has yellow or dead leaves, they should be cut off in time. One reason is to avoid infecting other leaves, and the other is to prevent the ornamental value from being reduced.

2. Leaves that are too long: If the plant grows very vigorously, you can cut off the tall ones to keep the plant flat overall, or you can cut off the protruding ones around it. Keeping these doesn't look good and also takes up space.

3. Weeds: During cultivation, some small weeds will grow in the pots, which will compete with the plants for nutrients and cause problems with the plants' absorption. So it is best to remove these weeds by the roots, which will also prevent them from growing again.

2. Uses of cut leaves

The cut leaves do not need to be thrown away, but can be directly combined with pruning for cuttings, usually in March-May. Cut the perennial stems and leaves, keep the upper leaves, remove the lower leaves, and then insert them into clean river sand or vermiculite. Pour enough water on it, place it in a semi-shaded place, maintain a temperature of around 20 degrees Celsius, and it will take root after 2 weeks.
