Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in cooler months, especially if the plant is in a dormant state.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Monitor soil moisture closely.

Prune to maintain shape, remove dead or damaged branches, and encourage bushier growth. This can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Light pruning can be performed throughout the year as needed. Avoid heavy pruning, which can stress the tree.

Propagate from seeds sown in spring. Scarify seeds or soak them in warm water overnight to improve germination rates. Germination can be slow and erratic.

Alternatively, cuttings can be taken from semi-hardwood in summer and rooted in a well-draining medium.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature trees can be repotted less frequently, every 3-5 years. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Ensure the new pot is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering issues and encourage healthy root development.
