Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which this species dislikes. Reduce watering frequency during cooler months when growth slows.

Overwatering can lead to root rot, so err on the side of caution.

Pruning is generally not required unless shaping is desired or dead/damaged branches appear. If pruning, do so in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Use clean, sharp tools to make precise cuts and promote quick healing.

Propagation is typically done by seeds, which require specific conditions to germinate. Cuttings can also be attempted, but success rates may vary. Seed germination is more common in its native tropical environment.

Repot young plants annually or biennially in spring to provide fresh soil and more space. Mature plants can be repotted less frequently, every 2-3 years.

Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
