How do you trim a poinciana tree?

To trim a poinciana tree, first, wait until after the flowering season to avoid cutting off buds. Use clean, sharp pruning shears to remove dead or damaged branches, as well as any crossing or overcrowded limbs to improve air circulation. Aim to maintain a balanced shape while avoiding excessive cutting, as these trees can be sensitive to heavy pruning. Always step back periodically to assess the overall shape as you work.
