Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly during the cooler, dormant months to prevent waterlogged roots.

Ensure good drainage to avoid root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain shape and promote air circulation.

Lightly trim to encourage bushier growth, but avoid heavy pruning.

Propagation is typically done by semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining potting mix in a warm, humid environment.

Alternatively, seeds can be sown in spring, but germination can be slow and inconsistent.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 3-4 years.

Use a well-draining potting mix and choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one to avoid excessive moisture retention.
