Water regularly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Alangium frutescens prefers consistent moisture but dislikes waterlogged conditions.

Reduce watering slightly during winter dormancy to prevent root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to shape the plant and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done after flowering to maintain desired form.

Avoid heavy pruning.

Propagate from seeds sown in spring, or by semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Seeds may require stratification. Cuttings need a warm, humid environment to root successfully. Patience is key for both methods.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current root ball.
