Water consistently during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in fall and winter to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, which this plant dislikes.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged stems.

Deadheading spent flowers throughout the blooming season can encourage further flowering and maintain a tidy appearance. Avoid heavy pruning.

Propagate primarily through seed, sown in autumn or early spring. Stratification may improve germination rates. Softwood cuttings can be taken in late spring or early summer.

Ensure cuttings are kept moist and in a humid environment until rooted.

Repot young plants every 1-2 years in spring, or when root-bound. Mature plants typically do not require frequent repotting and prefer to be slightly pot-bound.

Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot with ample drainage holes.
