In the midst of winter, my Nepenthes is still thriving, but it's time for a prune. Nepenthes, being climbing plants, exhibit a unique growth pattern. As they mature, they send out longer shoots and larger leaves in search of support. However, if left unattended, they can become unruly. Learn why pruning is essential for their well-being, especially when displayed in hanging baskets.
🔪 *Step 1 - Locating the Right Spot:*
The first step in pruning Nepenthes is crucial - find a spot just after a leaf node. Discover why this specific location matters, and why cutting between nodes can lead to unsightly results. My personal preference is to aim for around 20cm of growth, but feel free to adapt based on your preferences.
✂️ *Step 2 - Making the Cut:*
Watch as I demonstrate the second step - making the cut. It's a straightforward process, but I'll provide tips for those who want to take extra precautions, including sterilizing your snippers. Whether you like to play it safe or embrace a bit of risk, this step is essential to the success of the pruning process.
