Passionflower pruning

Summer scissors

The summer pruning time of passionflower is generally between June and September

For Passiflora plants with more branches, they can be pruned after bearing fruit, and the branches that have borne fruit can be cut short, which can make their new branches and vines stronger and have stronger fruit bearing ability

The advantage of summer pruning is that it can avoid the excessive and dense branches of passionflower, and reduce the consumption of nutrients and poor flowering of flowers

Winter shear

Passiflora winter cutting is carried out after the harvest of winter fruits. The time is generally in the middle and late February or the first ten days of March

Winter pruning is mainly heavy pruning. The main branches of passion fruit are cut short, leaving only 30cm-60cm, and the rest are cut off, so that passion fruit can grow again and recover quickly in spring

The advantage of winter cutting is that it can reduce the pathogens of diseases and pests, and the cut ones need to be destroyed in time

Modeling technology of passion fruit

Erection guidance

When modeling Passiflora, it is mainly to build a frame and guide. When the seedlings of passionflower grow rapidly, insert a pillar to make the main branches of passionflower grow along the pillar. A wire frame can also be set up to make the lateral branches of passion fruit grow spirally along the wire frame. Pay attention to breaking the top in time

Reshaping

The shaping of passionflower is carried out by combining pruning and scaffolding. When the branches of passionflower grow along the scaffolds, those redundant branches and flower buds need to be trimmed in time, and trimmed into a vertical curtain shape, which can make better use of space and make it transparent< span>
