Water thoroughly when the top 5-10 cm of soil feels dry. Allow soil to partially dry out between waterings, especially during cooler months. Reduce watering significantly in winter to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions.

Prune to shape the tree, remove dead or crossing branches, and manage size. This can be done after flowering to encourage new growth and blooms.

Heavy pruning can be performed in late winter before the active growing season begins.

Propagate from seeds, which require scarification and soaking before sowing. Cuttings can also be taken from semi-hardwood in summer.

Best results are achieved with warmth and consistent moisture for germination and rooting.

Repot young plants annually or bi-annually in spring. Mature trees generally require repotting every 2-3 years. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot slightly larger than the current one. Ensure not to overpot.
