Pruning osteospermum 'voltage yellow' — FAQ
When should I prune osteospermum 'voltage yellow'?
Deadhead throughout the blooming season; hard cutback in midsummer when flowering slows. Pinch or snip spent flower heads just below the bloom to the nearest leaf node. In midsummer, cut all stems back by one-third with clean shears to encourage branching and a second flush of flowers.
How often does osteospermum 'voltage yellow' need pruning?
Deadhead weekly; cutback once mid-season. Osteospermum 'Voltage Yellow' benefits from regular deadheading and a mid-season cutback to stay bushy and reblooming. Without pruning it becomes leggy and flower production drops. Pinch spent blooms weekly and cut stems back by one-third in midsummer to trigger a fresh flush of growth and flowers.
