Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Citharexylum myrianthum prefers consistent moisture but is sensitive to overwatering.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially during cooler months when growth slows.

Prune to shape the plant and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done after flowering to encourage bushier growth.

For larger specimens, more substantial pruning can be undertaken in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Propagate Citharexylum myrianthum from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer or early fall. Roots are often slow to form.

Seeds can also be sown in spring, but germination can be erratic and may require stratification.

Repot young plants annually in spring, and mature plants every 2-3 years, or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one to avoid waterlogged soil.

Ensure good drainage holes.
