Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter, especially for container-grown plants. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Overwatering is a common cause of failure for this species.

Minimal pruning is required. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage further blooming and maintain a tidy appearance. Remove any dead or damaged foliage in late winter or early spring before new growth emerges.

The plant generally maintains a compact, natural shape.

Easily propagated from seed sown in autumn or early spring. Germination can be erratic and may benefit from a period of cold stratification.

Softwood cuttings can also be taken in late spring or early summer and rooted in a moist medium.

For container-grown plants, repot every 2-3 years in spring as new growth appears. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a mix for alpine plants or cacti.

Select a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid excessive moisture retention.
