Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water moderately when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering during winter dormancy. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.
Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or leggy stems. Major pruning is generally not required unless you need to control size or remove damaged branches.
Propagate from seed sown in spring or from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer. Seeds may require stratification. Cuttings should be placed in well-draining soil and kept moist.
Repot every 2-3 years in spring, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a loam-based compost with added grit. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one.
