Water regularly, especially during prolonged dry spells. Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. In containers, ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging.

Reduce watering in cooler months when growth slows.

Prune lightly after flowering to maintain a tidy shape and encourage a bushier habit. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing stems at any time of year.

Hard pruning in early spring can rejuvenate older plants and promote vigorous new growth.

Easily propagated from seed sown in spring, either directly outdoors or started indoors a few weeks prior. Cuttings taken in late spring or early summer will also root well in moist, well-draining soil or a seed-starting mix.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in early spring before new growth begins. Mature plants are less demanding and can be repotted less frequently, only when root-bound.

Use a good quality, well-draining potting mix.
