Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during cooler months.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, as this plant is sensitive to soggy conditions.

Prune to maintain shape and size, or to remove any dead or leggy stems. Light pruning can be done anytime. For more significant shaping, prune in early spring before new growth begins.

Use clean, sharp tools to make precise cuts.

Propagation is typically done through seeds, which require consistent warmth and moisture to germinate. Cuttings can also be taken from mature plants, but they may be slow to root. Ensure cuttings have at least one node.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Repot in spring before the active growing season starts.
