Pruning time

To grow better, Robinia pseudoacacia must be pruned in summer and winter respectively

Pruning method

Pruning in summer: summer is the most vigorous growth period of Robinia pseudoacacia. At this time, pruning is mainly to improve its tree shape and make its growth more ornamental, and pruning in summer is also essential. You can cut off the old and drooping branches and leave 1 / 4 or 1 / 3, which can promote the growth of its lateral buds and make the plant more lush. Prune the branches to avoid excessive nutrient consumption. The trunk can also be shortened to make the branches grow more and other branches stronger

Winter pruning: it can be said that summer pruning is to make its rise more beautiful, while winter pruning shapes the overall tree shape. After all the leaves wither in winter, the overall branch distribution can be seen more clearly. First of all, we should adjust the growth of the main branches and stems. We can bind them with hemp rope and artificially change their original shape and direction. Too dense parts can also be weakened to make the overall tree shape look more symmetrical. All the old, weak, sick and disabled branches and stems should be cut off. Generally, what is left after pruning is the thicker and better part, which should be burned or thrown away after pruning
