Matters needing attention in red plum breeding:

1, pruning method:

It is best to prune Chimonanthus praecox in time, mainly cutting off withered branches, too dense branches, branches with diseases and insect pests and overlapping branches inside, which can not only reduce nutrient consumption, but also promote better ventilation and light transmission inside, which is conducive to growth.

2, pest control:

Chimonanthus praecox has few diseases and is easily infected with pests, such as aphids, moths and scale insects. No matter what kind of pests are found, it is necessary to spray chemicals in time for treatment, and change the environment to ensure good ventilation and moderate humidity to avoid re-infection.
