What is the alias of winter jasmine?

Forsythia, also known as Forsythia, Yellow Jasmine, and Golden Belt.

Winter jasmine, plum blossom, narcissus and camellia are collectively known as the "Four Friends in the Snow" and are one of the most common flowers in China. Winter jasmine is not only dignified and beautiful in color, but also has an extraordinary temperament. It is not afraid of the cold, is not selective in climate and soil, and has strong adaptability. It has always been loved by people. Winter jasmine has a history of more than 1,000 years. It is recorded in Bai Juyi's poem "Summoning Liu Langzhong on Behalf of Winter jasmine" in the Tang Dynasty, Han Qi's "Welcoming Spring in the East Hall of the Central Secretariat" in the Song Dynasty, and Zhou Wenhua's "History of Ru'nan Garden" in the Ming Dynasty. Winter jasmine is now the city flower of Hebi City, Henan Province. It is produced in Gansu, Shaanxi, Sichuan, northwest Yunnan, and southeast Tibet in China. It grows in hillside shrubs at an altitude of 800 to 2,000 meters. It is widely cultivated in China and around the world.

When is the best season to prune jasmine?

It is best to prune forsythia in early spring after the flowers have faded.

Leave two to three buds on each branch, and cut off dead branches, diseased branches and overcrowded branches from the base.

Since the flower buds of winter jasmine are formed on the branches of the previous year, it is not suitable to prune in autumn and winter. If you prune at this time, you will cut off the branches with flower buds formed in summer, resulting in no flowers to bloom. After pruning winter jasmine, you should apply nitrogen fertilizer twice, once every 10 days, to promote the germination of new branches. When the new branches grow to about 15 cm, apply phosphorus fertilizer three times, once every 7 days, to meet the nutrients needed for the formation and differentiation of flower buds and the cultivation of buds and flowering.

The characteristic of winter jasmine is that the flowers are large and concentrated on the new branches grown in autumn. The branches formed before summer rarely bloom, and the old branches basically cannot bloom. Therefore, after flowering every year, the long branches are cut off from the base to promote the sprouting of new branches so that more flowers can bloom in the second year.
