How to prune achimenes 'cascade violet night'

Tip-pinch in early spring; remove dead top-growth in autumn. Pinch out growing tips once or twice in spring to promote branching and a fuller trailing display. In autumn, cut back all dead stems to soil level after foliage yellows naturally.

No pruning is needed during the growing season beyond tip-pinching in spring to encourage branching and deadheading spent blooms. In autumn, allow foliage to die back naturally, then remove dead stems and store rhizomes dry through winter.
