When is Hibiscus usually pruned?
Generally, Hibiscus is pruned in autumn and winter, and pruned after fallen leaves in autumn and winter. First, dead branches, diseased branches and weak branches need to be pruned. Second, it needs too long branches and too dense branches, so pruning can make Hibiscus grow more new branches and bloom more in the next year.
For the vertical growth of Hibiscus, crowding of branches often occurs inside the crown, and the flowering moves outward. At this time, pruning can transform it into a natural happy shape.
When pruning the tree form, leave the main and side branches needed, and cut off the remaining branches to make them dense and reasonable. The remaining branches shall be cut short to make them retract for ventilation and light transmission. In addition, the flower branches should be properly pruned, the reserved ones should be kept, and the pruned ones should be pruned to make them bloom better.
When pruning, we need to pay attention to the density of branches, keep a good tree shape, and also need to pay attention not to cut too many branches in a year.
For the growth of more open hibiscus, sometimes there will be too many main branches, lateral branches drooping, branches too messy phenomenon
For the pruning of Hibiscus, the upright branches growing in the inner side can be cut off without short cutting. The flower branch can be cut short properly, the lateral branch needs to prevent it from drooping, and it can be pruned in time.
Hibiscus need to be in the annual dormancy period, those dead branch disease leaves cut off, and need to be in the spring germination time, for thinning.
Pruning to maintain the beautiful shape of the tree and maintain its good growth, pay attention not to excessive pruning.
