Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in winter to prevent waterlogged roots.

Senna pendula prefers consistently moist soil but can tolerate short dry spells once established.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can also be done after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth.

This stimulates new flowering wood for the next season.

Propagate from seeds sown in spring or summer, often requiring scarification or soaking to improve germination rates. Cuttings taken in late spring or early summer can also be rooted in moist potting mix.

Seed germination can be slow and erratic.

Repot young plants annually in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering issues.
