Water Coral Gum regularly during its establishment phase, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Once established, it becomes drought-tolerant and requires minimal supplemental water, especially in its native arid climate. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

Pruning for shape or to remove dead or damaged branches can be done in late spring or early summer after flowering. Heavy pruning is generally not recommended as it can stress the plant.

Focus on maintaining a natural form and ensuring good air circulation within the canopy.

Propagation is typically done from seed. Seeds require scarification or stratification to improve germination rates. Sow seeds in a well-draining potting mix in spring or early summer.

Keep the medium moist but not waterlogged, and provide warmth and bright, indirect light.

Repotting is usually only necessary for young plants that have outgrown their containers. Use a well-draining, sandy potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid waterlogging.

Repot in spring, handling the root ball gently to minimize disturbance.
