The Dutch chrysanthemum is very durable. We'd better prune it five times a year, mainly in June and July. The first two times of re cutting, top bud removal, to help the development and growth of lateral buds, and then two times of pruning for its shape, the last time of pruning selected during the national day, so as to make its flowering time more concentrated.

1. Is it resistant to trimming?

For this plant, it is very resistant to pruning. This is because it has more branches. Then, the resistance to pruning will naturally become another feature of it. So, when pruning, don't worry about its growth.

2. Trim several times a year.

It can be pruned five times a year. However, time is not optional. We'd better trim it at a certain time. Four times during the growing period. Another time, when it is in full bloom

3. Specific time

(1) the first trimming should be around June 10.

(2) for the second time, it can be around July 5

(3) for the third time, it can be at the end of July.

(4) for the fourth time, at the end of August

(5) the last trimming is during the national day. This time is relatively important. This is because, although its flowering period is relatively long, the overall viewing effect is not particularly good. Only by pruning, can we make the flowers bloom in a concentrated time and make them more beautiful.

4. Specific methods

(1) during the first two repairs, it can be re cut. In other words, the top can be cut off. In this way, axillary buds can germinate and branch more

(2) for the next two trims, we mainly consider its appearance and shape. Trim according to the specific situation, how to look good. After trimming, it's better to make it look more harmonious.

(3) for the last time, mainly control the time. Because, its flowering period is very short, sometimes only about a week. Therefore, this time must grasp the opportunity.
