Antidesma alexiteria prefers consistently moist soil but dislikes waterlogged conditions. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering slightly during cooler months to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid issues.

Prune Antidesma alexiteria to maintain desired shape and size, and to remove any dead or crossing branches.

Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. This encourages bushier growth.

Propagation of Antidesma alexiteria is typically done through stem cuttings. Take cuttings of about 10-15 cm length from healthy stems in spring or summer.

Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix. Keep moist and warm for best results.

Repot Antidesma alexiteria every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix, preferably a sandy loam.

Repotting is best done in spring.
