How to Prune Jammy mouth?
(Ruttya fruticosa)
Jammy mouth, also known as Jammy mouth
This vibrant, hummingbird-attracting plant benefits from pruning to maintain shape and encourage bushiness. For jammy mouth, the key pruning techniques include thinning out crowded branches and cutting back tips after the first flowering to spur a second bloom. Optimal pruning should be done in late spring or early summer, post-flowering periods. By deadheading spent flowers and shaping the plant, you promote healthier, more vigorous growth and enhance its ornamental appeal.
