Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feel dry to the touch. Allow excess water to drain away to prevent waterlogging. Reduce watering frequency during cooler months or when the plant is dormant to avoid root rot.

Overwatering can lead to fungal diseases.

Prune to maintain shape and remove any dead, damaged, or leggy stems. Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

This encourages bushier growth and can improve air circulation.

Propagate from seeds sown in spring or by taking semi-hardwood cuttings in summer. Seeds require warmth and consistent moisture to germinate.

Cuttings should be placed in well-draining soil and kept in a humid environment until rooted.

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

Repotting provides fresh nutrients and space for root growth.
