Water the Bentham Cypress regularly, especially during its establishment phase and dry periods. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering in winter when the plant is less active.

Pruning is generally minimal for Bentham Cypress. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches as needed to maintain the plant's natural shape.

Light pruning can be done in late winter or early spring to encourage denser growth, but avoid heavy shearing.

Propagation is typically done by seed or cuttings. Seeds should be sown in autumn or early spring. Cuttings are best taken in late summer or early autumn from semi-hardwood.

Rooting can be slow, so be patient and provide suitable conditions.

Young plants may require repotting every 2-3 years into a slightly larger container. Use a well-draining potting mix. Mature trees typically do not require repotting and are best planted in their final location.

Repotting should be done in early spring.
