Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the growing season. Reduce watering significantly in cooler months, allowing the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings.

Overwatering can lead to root rot, especially in cooler temperatures.

Pruning is generally minimal, primarily for shape and to remove any dead or damaged foliage. If the plant becomes too leggy or overgrown, prune back branches in the spring to encourage bushier growth.

Use clean, sharp tools.

Propagation is typically done from seed. Sow seeds in a well-draining seedling mix and keep them consistently moist and warm. Germination can be slow and erratic.

Cuttings are less common but can be attempted in warm conditions.

Repot young plants annually in spring to refresh the soil and provide more space. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years or when root-bound.

Use a well-draining potting mix, and choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one.
