Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. In hotter, drier conditions, increase watering frequency.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions, especially during cooler months.

Prune to maintain shape and size, and to remove any dead or damaged stems. Light pruning can be done at any time, but more significant pruning is best performed in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

This encourages bushier growth.

Propagate from stem cuttings taken in spring or summer. Cuttings should be at least 10-15 cm long and can be rooted in moist potting mix or water. Ensure cuttings are taken from healthy, vigorous stems.

Rooting hormone can improve success rates.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Repotting is best done in spring just as new growth is emerging.
