Water deeply but infrequently once established. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot, especially in well-draining soils.

Reduce watering significantly during cooler, wetter months to prevent waterlogged conditions.

Prune to shape the plant, remove dead or diseased branches, or to improve air circulation. Light pruning can be done after flowering. Avoid heavy pruning, as it can stress the plant.

Remove any suckers that emerge from the base of the plant.

Propagation is typically done from seeds or cuttings. Seeds require a period of cold stratification. Cuttings are best taken in late spring or early summer from semi-hardwood.

Ensure cuttings have good drainage and are kept in a humid environment until rooted.

Young plants may need repotting every 2-3 years into slightly larger containers. Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally incorporating grit or perlite.

Mature plants generally do not require repotting and prefer to be left undisturbed in their established location.
