Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as Correa aemula prefers slightly drier conditions once established. Reduce watering in winter to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, especially for potted plants.

Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove spent flowers and any dead or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done anytime to control size.

Avoid heavy pruning, as it can reduce flowering and potentially stress the plant.

Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining, sandy potting mix.

Keep moist and in a warm, humid environment until roots form. This can take several weeks to months.

Repot young plants every 1-2 years in spring when they become root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally formulated for Australian natives. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one.

Water thoroughly after repotting and place in a protected location for a few weeks.
