Jasmine can be pruned all year round. Spring is the appropriate time for pruning. It is necessary to perform pruning and topping in time, and cut off the branches that are not growing well. Pruning in summer and autumn is just after the flowers bloom and fade. First remove the remaining flowers, then leave 3-5 nodes and cut off the top tips. Winter pruning happens during the dormant period, so you need to cut off some of the overlapping branches.

1. Spring pruning

1. Spring pruning

Spring is the appropriate time for pruning. Topping and topping need to be carried out in time to control the growth height of the plant. In this case, it will be difficult for side branches to sprout. In addition, after a period of maintenance, the branches tend to grow messy, and there may even be some dead branches, yellow branches, and diseased branches caused by poor ventilation. Spring is a good time to prune branches. Branches that are not growing well should be pruned. Cut it off, leaving some weak branches useless.

2. Pruning in summer and autumn

Pruning in summer and autumn is very important. This period is just after the flowers bloom. Some blooms will bloom early in summer, and some bloom late in early autumn. Remove the remaining flowers first and do not leave them on to reduce nutrient consumption. Leave 3-5 nodes on the branches and cut off the top tips. This will promote the germination of new shoots and promote vigorous flowering in the later period.

3. Winter pruning

Winter Pruning is also very appropriate, just during the dormant period, when pruning will not have much impact on the plant. First observe the entire plant. Cut off some overlapping branches. This will not only reduce nutrient consumption, but also improve lighting conditions and promote sunlight penetration.
