Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to maintain consistent soil moisture. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during cooler months when growth slows.

Prune to maintain desired shape and size, or to remove old/dead culms. Can be cut back hard to encourage new growth. Best done in late winter or early spring before new shoots emerge.

Easily propagated by division of rhizomes in spring. Can also be grown from seed, though this is less common for maintaining specific cultivars.

For container-grown plants, repot every 2-3 years into a slightly larger container with fresh potting mix. This is best done in spring as new growth begins.
