However, in order to make the upside-down bell bloom at its best, the pruning work is particularly important. Today, I will introduce to you the pruning method of the upside-down Admiralty.
First of all, the time to prune the upside-down golden bell should be chosen in spring and autumn, these two seasons are the vigorous period of plant growth, and the plant is easy to recover after pruning. Before pruning, you need to prepare a pair of sharp gardening scissors to ensure that the pruning process does not cause harm to the plants.
The first step in pruning an upside-down Admiralty is to remove pests and diseases. Observe the plants carefully and prune the branches and leaves that are suffering from pests and diseases to prevent the spread of pests and diseases. During the pruning process, if you find that the plant is too dense, you can also cut some branches and leaves appropriately to maintain good ventilation and light conditions.

During the pruning process, it is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the balance of the plant and avoid over-pruning, which can lead to an imbalance in the plant morphology.
The third step is to prune the flowers. When the flowers of the upside-down golden bell wither, they bear fruit. When the fruit is ripe, it will split and the seeds will drift away with the wind, affecting the beauty of the plant. Therefore, after the flowers have withered, the flowers should be cut off in time to reduce the spread of seeds. At the same time, pruning the flowers also helps the plant concentrate nutrients and promote the next flower.
When pruning, you should also pay attention to the following: when pruning, you should avoid damaging the roots of the plant, so as not to affect the growth of the plant. Pruned wounds can be disinfected with gardening shears to prevent bacterial infection. After pruning, the plant can be applied with organic fertilizer once to supplement nutrients and promote plant growth. After pruning, it is necessary to water in time to keep the soil moist and conducive to the recovery of the plant.
