1、 Pruning method

1. Pinching: pinching can be carried out in spring, that is, the part at the top of the branch can be cut off, which is what we call pinching. The purpose of this is to promote the growth of new buds. On the other hand, it is also reducing the consumption of nutrients in the soil

2. Diseased branches: if the plant is damaged by diseases and insect pests, the diseased branches should be cut off at the first time to avoid infecting more branches. In addition, if the growth of evening primrose is not very good and there are weak branches and dead branches on the plant, it can also be pruned appropriately

2、 Trim at other times

In addition to pruning in spring, it is also necessary to prune properly after flowering, mainly to cut off the branches that grow too long and too dense, which can make the plant shape more beautiful and the plant more breathable. Long branches are usually cut short, and some branches that have already bloomed should also be trimmed off, so as to avoid the loss of nutrients

3、 Precautions

When pruning in spring, do not prune too seriously, just simply pick the heart and cut off the branches and leaves that are not growing well. After pruning, do not let the position of the cut contact with water, and keep it in a relatively dry state to avoid the decay of the cut
