Pruning tiger jaws — FAQ
When should I prune tiger jaws?
After autumn flowering, or whenever dead leaves are visible. Pull dry, dead leaves away gently by hand, or use clean scissors at the base of the dead leaf. Remove spent flower stalks at soil level once blooms have fully faded.
How often does tiger jaws need pruning?
As needed — typically once a year after flowering. Tiger Jaws needs minimal pruning. The clumping rosettes are naturally tidy and self-maintain. Simply remove any leaves that have turned completely brown and dry, or snip off spent flower stalks after blooming. Avoid cutting healthy tissue — over-pruning a small succulent creates unnecessary wound sites prone to rot.
