How to Prune Rangoon creeper?
(Combretum indicum)
Rangoon creeper, also known as Burma creeper, Quisqualis
A vigorous twining vine known for its fragrant, multicolored flowers, rangoon creeper flourishes with periodic pruning. For optimal growth, prune in early spring or late winter, which encourages bushier foliage and more blooms. Essential techniques include trimming back leggy stems, removing dead or diseased wood, and shaping for size and support. Pruning stimulates new growth, enhances plant health, and prolongs the flowering period. Take care to make clean cuts and avoid over-pruning, as this can stress the plant.
