How to Prune Azure bluet?
(Houstonia caerulea)
Azure bluet, also known as Bluets
This perennial with delicate blue flowers and slender stems thrives in well-drained soils and partial shade. For azure bluet, trim faded flowers to encourage more blooms and maintain a neat appearance. Prune lightly, focusing on dead or damaged stems, in early spring before new growth starts. Avoid heavy cutting to preserve the plant's natural form. Regular deadheading prolongs blooming from spring to fall, enhancing vigor and visual appeal.
