Campomanesia xanthocarpa prefers consistent moisture, especially during establishment and fruiting. Water deeply when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering slightly during cooler, dormant periods, but do not allow the soil to dry out completely.

Prune annually in late winter or early spring to maintain shape, remove dead or diseased branches, and improve air circulation.

Light pruning can be done after fruiting to encourage branching and fruit production for the following season. Remove suckers that emerge from the base of the plant.

Propagation is primarily done from seeds, which require stratification or initial warm moist conditions before sowing.

Grafting or cuttings can also be used for faster or more consistent results, especially for specific cultivars. Success rates vary, so multiple attempts may be necessary.

Repot young plants every 2-3 years or when rootbound, typically in early spring before new growth begins. Use a well-draining potting mix.

For larger, established plants in the ground, repotting is generally not recommended unless necessary for relocation. Ensure adequate drainage in containers.
