Water
Water thoroughly when the top 5-10 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering during cooler months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.
Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water thoroughly when the top 5-10 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering during cooler months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.
Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Prune to maintain shape and size, and to remove any dead or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
This encourages vigorous new growth.
Propagate from seeds sown in spring, or from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Seeds may require stratification.
Cuttings should be placed in a well-draining potting mix and kept in a warm, humid environment until roots form.
Repot young plants annually in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years or when root-bound. Use a well-draining, general-purpose potting mix.
Choose a pot slightly larger than the current one to allow for root growth.
