1. The cactus fingers (crabmail) after flowering are counted from the roots, leaving 7-8 leaves, and the rest are all cut off. When cutting, cut at the place where the leaves meet, not in the middle of the leaves. Only in this way can the Christmas Cactus keep up with nutrition, bloom in order and not affect the plant shape.

After pruning
2. Cut off the branches that are too dense to ensure ventilation. Avoid rotten stems and roots caused by poor ventilation.
3. After a period of time, the nodes of cactus fingers (Christmas Cactus) will produce 4-5 buds. At this time, we will cut 2-3 buds, leaving only 1-2 branches.
1. Cut 2-3 branches, dry them for a few days, or apply some rooting powder.
2. Mix river sand and saprophytic soil in proportion of 2:8.
3. Insert the branch into the soil, 2-3cm, put it in a cool place, spray water every day to moisturize, about 10 days can take root.
1. Trim the flower and receptacle. The receptacle is the flower. There is the stem of the flower under it. Don't cut too much
2. Cut off all over dense branches and Cross branches that hinder the growth to maintain the shape and strengthen the ventilation and light conditions. Cut off all dead branches, diseased branches, overlapping branches and Cross branches.
3. The pruned branches will sprout new branches. When the new branches (except the main branches) are 5-6cm long, pick the center and promote branches. Generally, one branch can grow 2-4 branches, leaving 2 branches. Then continue to pick heart.
4. Cut off the overgrown branches that are higher than the crown and are not conducive to modeling. For example: your Rhododendron is mushroom head shape, we can trim the whole plant into a semicircle after the flower
5. If you want to make azalea into cliff style, you need not only pruning, but also climbing and other techniques for modeling, which needs to be honed for a long time
6. Cut off the germinated buds at the base of the plant in time, or they will compete with the main stem for nutrients and disturb the plant shape. Note: root system and branches cannot be pruned at the same time, weak branches and diseased branches should not be pruned.
1. The cutting of Rhododendron from April to May and from August to September is the most suitable with the highest survival rate, so the cut branches are the most suitable for cutting.
2. Prepare cutting soil, mix it according to peat soil: garden soil: coconut bran = 4:3:3, and spray the soil with a watering can in advance.
3. Cut off a number of Rhododendron branches, each of which is about 8 cm. Cut off the lower leaves and the upper leaves, cut off half of them, reduce evaporation. Soak the pruned branches in the rooting powder solution for about 5 minutes, and dry them.
4. Put the soil into the seedling box, insert a hole in the middle of each seedling box with a fine stick, and insert the Rhododendron branches
5. Cover the nursery box or cover it with a film, and put it in the place of astigmatism and ventilation.
6. The cover is ventilated at noon every day. When the soil surface is dry, spray water properly to keep moisture. After a few weeks, the branches take root.
1. Cut off the flowering Geranium to avoid nutrient consumption.
2. Cut off the branches that are too long, too dense and messy, especially the branches that have flowers. Generally, they are relatively long, and they should be cut down properly. The cut branches will sprout new branches and give birth to new flower buds.
3. After cutting the branch, it will sprout new buds about a week. When the new buds grow to 5-6cm, the heart will be removed to promote branches, leaving only 2-3 leaves. There will be more twigs. Of course, this is for varieties with poor branching, and geranium with good branching can also be taken care of
4. Geranium is dormant in summer and weak. In autumn, it can cut off some branches with sunburn, poor development and poor position, but for plants in poor condition, it can be cut again to help them recover their growth.
5. The cutting position can be 5-8 cm above the basin soil. The cutting mouth should not be too far away from the bud point, just a little above. Leave a few leaves for photosynthesis. The tools must be sharp, the cutting mouth should be neat, and the wound should be sprinkled with carbendazim powder for sterilization. Do not contact with water in a short time to prevent contamination.
1. Find some disposable plastic bottles and cups, and poke some holes at the bottom with sharp things.
2. Cut the geranium branches, don't throw them away, cut them into small sections of about 9-15cm, leave 1-2 leaves for each section, and put them in the place of astigmatism and ventilation for a day.
3. Prepare clean river sand, put it into a plastic cup, soak the sand in advance, and then insert the branches into the sand.
4. After inserting, put it in the place of astigmatism and ventilation, spray water every day, keep the sand slightly moist.
5. About 10-15 days later, Geranium gives birth to root system and shoots, which proves that the branches survive, and then transplants them into flowerpots.
1. Cut off the flower branches of lig Begonia after flowering. It's better to use a wallpaper knife when cutting. Before cutting, bake the blade with a lighter and sterilize it.
2. Rieger Begonia is particularly easy to black rot, so after cutting, it must be sprinkled with a layer of dry powder of multi fungus spirit, do not spray water in a short period of time, otherwise it is easy to infect and rot!
3. Check whether there are rotten branches, too dense branches and branches with diseases and insect pests in Rieger Begonia, and cut them off in time to avoid infecting other branches and causing the whole plant to die.
1. When cutting Rieger Begonia, you must use healthy branches. If you find any dark spots on the branches, you must cut them off. The blade is cut at an angle of 45 degrees.
2. Cut the branches and put them in the place of astigmatism and ventilation for about 4-5 hours.
3. Put the dried Rieger crabapple in the clean soil and water it once. Cover with a bag to moisturize, about 1 - 2 weeks to survive.
