Many flower enthusiasts do not know how to prune jasmine and hope to see illustrations. This article is an analysis of pruning jasmine based on sample diagrams by flower enthusiasts, with the pruning positions of jasmine marked on the diagram, which is very helpful for beginner flower enthusiasts.
Overall, this pot of jasmine is relatively old and weak, with very thin branches. For such jasmine, a "heavy cut" is needed. The pruning position is as shown in the diagram, leaving the strongest 4 old branches and cutting off the rest. Only the base of the old branches is left, and the ones in the diagram are relatively long, it would be better to leave 1~2 sections down.
When pruning potted jasmine, consider the overall size and the proportion of the pot. Generally, jasmine can grow at least twenty to thirty centimeters in overall height in a year. If the branches are left long, it will grow very tall. For example, the jasmine in the diagram has old branches of about twenty centimeters, and if not pruned, it will grow to about fifty centimeters this year, making the pot look small.
For potted jasmine, do not leave too many branches, ensuring that 5~10 new branches can grow this year (depending on the size of the pot). Each new branch can currently grow 3~4 branches. Even if it's 3 times, with 2 branches each time, it totals 14 branches in a year, which is 14 flowering branches, with 3 flowers per branch, that's 42 flowers per new branch. If 5 new branches are left in a pot, then the whole pot will have 210 flowers; if cared for better, with 5 flowers per branch, that's 350 flowers; if cared for to the extreme, with 9 flowers per branch, that's 630 flowers. Are you still not satisfied?
So don't hesitate, go ahead and prune!
