Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in winter to prevent waterlogging. Ensure good drainage to avoid root rot, especially for potted plants.
Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Heavy pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
Propagate by seeds sown in spring or by semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Seeds may require stratification. Cuttings should be rooted in a well-draining medium with bottom heat.
Repot young plants annually in spring, and mature plants every 2-3 years. Use a good quality, well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current root ball.
