When to Prune Pudica?

When pruning a healthy tree to maintain size, it is important to prune only in the winter or early spring to avoid causing damage to the blooming cycle. Trimming off dead or diseased branches can be done at any time of the year and will not affect the blooms or harm the health of the tree.

Can you prune Plumeria pudica?

Plumeria is extremely tolerant to cutting, and it can be cut all the way back to a 12 in (30 cm) stem without harming the plant. Feel free to cut off any limbs or branches that are in your way or that you don't think look very good. The only way you can over-prune your plant is to cut it all the way to the ground.

When should I start pruning?

Pruning to remove damaged, dead or diseased parts can be done at any time of the year. Most trees and shrubs, especially those that flower on current season's new growth should be pruned in late winter or early spring before the onset of new growth. (March-April).
