When Yushu is in dormancy stage, it needs to be cut short, and each branch should be kept about 10-25cm. When trimming, the length should be matched to make it more beautiful. In addition, there will be some dry or rotten branches, which need to be cut.
Spring is a period when the growth of Yushu is more vigorous. In order to avoid excessive loss of nutrients, we should cut the branches that grow more closely, that is to say, cut off the thick and weak branches. In addition, the diseased branches and some branches that affect the growth should be pruned.
When the plant is finished with flowers, cut off all the flowers and branches. When pruning flower branches, each branch should keep at least 4 buds, otherwise it will be difficult to grow new buds.
When pruning, attention should be paid to the aesthetic degree, not to prune too seriously, nor to be lush while sparse. If there are some transverse, cross growth and excessive branches on the plant, they should be properly pruned.
