Water regularly, especially when young, to establish a strong root system. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings once mature. Reduce watering in winter. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to shape the plant and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This also helps maintain a dense form and can encourage more prolific flowering and fruiting in subsequent seasons.

Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining medium. It can also be propagated by seed sown in autumn, though germination may be slow and require stratification.

Division of established clumps is another option.

Repot young plants every 2-3 years in spring to provide fresh soil and more space for root growth. Mature plants generally do not need frequent repotting and prefer to be slightly pot-bound.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage.
