Light annual pruning after flowering is also beneficial for overall plant health.

Scaevola aemula can be propagated from stem cuttings taken in spring or early summer. Select healthy, non-flowering shoots, cut them to about 10 cm, and remove lower leaves.

Repot Scaevola aemula every 1-2 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of potting soil and perlite or sand. Repot in spring before new growth begins.
