Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is less active.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially in containers.

Prune Actinidia callosa to manage size and shape, and to remove dead or diseased wood. Aim for a balance between fruiting wood and vegetative growth.

Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Propagate Actinidia callosa from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Dip cuttings in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining medium.

Alternatively, propagate from seed, though this is slower and may not result in true-to-type plants.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be repotted less frequently, every 3-4 years. Use a slightly larger pot with a good quality, well-draining potting mix.

Ensure the new pot has drainage holes.
