Pruning is very important for it. Pruning when sick can promote its health and subsequent growth. Pruning during the growing period can promote branching and subsequent flowering. About the shape of the trim, you can make its shape more beautiful
1. Pruning in case of illness: it is sometimes troubled by some diseases and insects, which may cause its leaves to turn yellow and wither, or branches to wither and so on. At this time, it is necessary to cut these branches and leaves in time to avoid affecting other parts..
2. Heart picking: This is a necessary step in the growth period, because the ability of the plant itself to branch is not very strong. After picking the heart, you can avoid the top growing too high, and promote the germination of branches.
3. Pruning in flowering period: This is for a specific period. When flowering, some extra buds should be cut off, or too much nutrition will be consumed. After the flowering period, the remnant flowers also need to be cut, in order not to continue to consume nutrients.
4. Shape trimming: if you want to use it as a bonsai, you have to consider its shape and cut out the desired shape
