This, along with over-watering, are the main causes of plants to fail to perform or die. The plants can be lightly trimmed any time but this is best undertaken in summer.

Keep an eye out for scale insect and mealy bugs and treat with an appropriate agrichemical if necessary.

Parahebe Avalanche pruning

Parahebe Avalanche is generally only pruned to shape the plants. The best time to prune is during summer when the plants are actively growing as they will shoot away again quickly. At this time up to 50% of the vegetation can safely be removed if aggressive pruning is required. However, The Plant Company recommends a little and often approach which can be achieved with an annual trim in summer. Light pruning can occur during the other seasons without issue.
