Some trees that flower on new season’s growth, including Hibiscus and Lagerstroemia. For these trees it is best to hard prune every winter, this promotes a strong response the following spring and summer, with enhanced shoot growth and inevitably more flower. Not only is the tree kept vibrant and healthy, you get a far longer flowering display!
If you applied the same strategy to apple tree you would achieve the opposite effect as a winter prune takes away the flowering bud for the next spring so beware. Always feel free to contact us for advice if unsure!
