Abstract: This article shares experience in caring for Bamboo Joint crabapple, focusing on pruning techniques. These tips are sure to help you, so let's dive in!

Pruning Bamboo Joint crabapple is actually quite simple and doesn't have a fixed method. After pruning, the plant will continuously produce new branches, and the more branches it has, the more flowers it will produce. The cut branches can also be used for propagation through cutting. Sometimes, you can also directly pinch the top, which also helps in producing new branches. As pruning is straightforward, there is no need for extensive explanation here. Let's move on to the method for propagating through cutting after pruning.

Bamboo Joint crabapple branches can be propagated through water or soil cutting. Select healthy terminal shoots for cuttings, about 10 to 15 centimeters long with 3 to 4 internodes. The lower cut should be 0.5 centimeters above the lowest internode. Let them dry for one day, then insert them into a sand bed, with a depth of about 5 centimeters. Remove all leaves from the part that goes into the soil and keep 2 to 3 leaves on the top. To prevent water evaporation, you can cut some leaves. Press the base firmly into the soil, water with a spray bottle, shade and keep moist. In about a month, roots will form and the plant can be transplanted.
