Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter, providing just enough to prevent the soil from becoming completely dry.
Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Prune to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Deadhead spent flowers to promote more blooms. Heavy pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to improve air circulation.
Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late spring or summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.
Keep the cuttings moist and warm, and they should root within a few weeks. Seed propagation is also possible.
Repot young plants annually in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years or when they become root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
Water thoroughly after repotting.
