It can be pruned at any time except the pregnancy and flowering, but it is most suitable before summer. Pruning at the gestational stage has some obstacles to flower bud differentiation. It needs to be cut off at the growth stage. During the maintenance period, withered, sick, overdense and overgrown branches should be cut off in time. The extra buds should be cut off in the budding stage to avoid affecting the quality of flowering.

2. During the maintenance period, if it is found that there are withered, sick and weak branches, dense and long branches on the plant, they should be pruned immediately. If not pruned, it will not only hinder the growth of plants, but also consume more nutrients in the pot soil.

3. During budding, the redundant buds should be trimmed properly, otherwise the quality of blooming will be poor. Pruning flower buds in time can reduce nutrient loss and will not hinder the growth and development of other flower buds.
