1. Time

Because it will grow new branches, in order to avoid the branches of the branches being too long, of course, in addition to this reason, this is also because its flowers are relatively large and will bloom in the new branches, while the old branches rarely bloom, so we need to pick our hearts two or three times between May and July. If the heart is picked too early, it may affect the development of roots, may make the seedlings weak, and some later growth will also be involved. Therefore, it is better to be late and let it grow fully, not too early. If we pick the heart too early, the flower seedling has four or five true leaves, and its vigorous growth has just begun. At this time, if we pick the heart too early, it will give a serious blow to the flower that has just begun its own growth path

2. Method

The object of heart picking is the overgrown branches or useless branches, which are not needed, because they will not only lead to the beautiful shape of plants, but also affect the flowering and fruit of other branches

Only two pairs of buds can remain at the base of the new branch each time the heart is picked. For those plants that thrive, they can no longer pick their hearts after July. Plants that are thin and not strong do not need to pick their hearts so often

In addition, after the winter jasmine flower is withered, we need to cut off the withered branches, diseased roots and overcrowded branches from the base, so that the nutrients will be gathered together, so that the shape of the plants will be beautiful and the whole will be more tidy

It is not appropriate to pick the heart in winter. If you want to trim the whole plant, you should also according to its habits. Not all woody plants are suitable for winter pruning. For example, winter jasmine blooms in spring and is not very suitable for pruning in winter. At this time, pruning will cut off some buds and branches, and the effect of flowers in spring will not be very good< span>
