Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water consistently, allowing the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering slightly in cooler months. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Ensure good drainage in the pot.
Prune 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 after flowering to encourage new growth and subsequent blooms.
Propagate by semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer or early autumn. Insert cuttings into a well-draining potting mix and keep them in a warm, humid environment until they root. This can take several weeks.
Repot young plants annually, and mature plants every 2-3 years, or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, preferably one formulated for tropical plants or a general-purpose mix with added perlite.
Repot in spring.
