4. **Spring pruning** (0-0): Spring is the period of vigorous growth of the triangular plum, and pruning at this time helps to stimulate the activity of the branches and promote the growth of new branches and leaves.
10. **Prune after flowering** (0-0): After the flowering period is over, prune residual flowers and overly dense branches to reduce nutrient consumption and prepare for the next round of flowering.
12. **Prune before winter** (0-0): Prune dead, diseased and insect branches before winter to prepare for the germination of new branches in the following spring.
1. **Light pruning and thinning**: Suitable for smaller triangular plum seedlings, cut off weak branches, diseased branches and dead branches, and keep more branches to promote tree development.
2. **Medium pruning of waste branches**: suitable for pruning dead branches and waste branches, stubbing and thinning of disorganized branches, and maintaining the original shape.
3. **Heavy pruning modeling**: suitable for aging triangular plum, cut off most of the branches, promote the germination of new shoots, and make the plant more robust.
4. **Daily pruning**: In the growing season, you can cut off too long and dense branches, as well as withered yellow leaves and branches with pests and diseases, to keep the plant ventilated and light.
- Use clean, sharp scissors to reduce the risk of wound infection.
- After pruning, disinfectants such as carbendago can be applied to prevent bacterial infection.
- Proper fertilization after pruning to promote plant recovery and new branch growth.
- Avoid pruning in extreme weather conditions, such as cold winters or hot summers.
With proper pruning, the Triangle Plum can maintain a good growth condition and produce more lush flowers.
