Provide consistent moisture, especially during establishment. Water deeply when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry.

Reduce watering slightly during cooler, dormant periods, but never allow the soil to become completely dry. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions which can lead to root rot.

Pruning is typically minimal, focused on removing dead, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain structure and health. Light shaping can be done after flowering if necessary.

Avoid heavy pruning, as this species generally prefers a more natural form and can be slow to recover from severe cuts.

Propagation is best achieved through seeds, which require stratification or scarification to break dormancy. Softwood cuttings can be taken in spring, but success rates can be variable.

Ensure cuttings are treated with rooting hormone and kept in a humid environment with bottom heat.

Young plants may benefit from repotting every 2-3 years into a slightly larger container with fresh, well-draining potting mix. Mature specimens are best left undisturbed.

Repotting should be done in spring before new growth begins to minimize transplant shock.
