Water Argyranthemum adauctum thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.
Prune Argyranthemum adauctum regularly to encourage bushier growth and more blooms. Deadhead spent flowers frequently.
Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning to shape the plant should be done in early spring before new growth begins.
Propagate Argyranthemum adauctum from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Dip cuttings in rooting hormone and insert them into a well-draining potting mix.
Keep them moist and warm, and they should root within a few weeks.
Repot Argyranthemum adauctum every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Spring is the best time to repot, just as new growth appears.
Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot that is slightly larger than the current one.
