PRUNING PERSIMMON TREE. The best time to prune is late winter or early spring, when the tree is dormant. To improve structure and reduce the chance of alternate bearing, prune once a year. Corrective pruning consists of removing broken, interfering, dead, or diseased branches. Trim all other branches by 1/3 to a bud that is facing the direction you would like the tree to grow. An open vase shape is best. #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #deogardener #fyp #reelsviral #Persimmon | D
