Water regularly during the growing season, especially when the plant is young or during dry spells. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Reduce watering in the fall and winter to prevent waterlogged roots, which can lead to root rot. Ensure good drainage.

Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushiness. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches at any time.

Light pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to remove any winter damage and shape the plant. This species blooms on old wood.

Propagate by softwood cuttings taken in early summer. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant them in a well-draining medium. Keep the cuttings moist and in a warm, humid environment.

Alternatively, layering can be attempted in late summer or fall. Seed propagation is also possible but may not produce true to type.

Repot young plants every 1-2 years in spring, or when they become root-bound. Use a good quality, well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Water thoroughly after repotting.

Mature plants generally do not require frequent repotting and prefer to be slightly pot-bound.
