Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings.

Reduce watering in winter when growth slows down to prevent root rot.

Prune to maintain shape, control size, and encourage denser growth. Lightly prune in late spring or early summer to shape.

Harder pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth appears to rejuvenate older plants or control vigorous spread.

Easily propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer or hardwood cuttings taken in late autumn or winter. Insert cuttings into moist, well-draining potting mix and keep them in a humid environment until rooted.

Rooting hormone can improve success rates.

Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years in spring, or when they become root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Water thoroughly after repotting.
