Water regularly, especially during dry spells, to maintain consistently moist soil. Avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Deep watering is preferable to frequent shallow applications.

Reduce watering slightly in late summer and autumn to encourage dormancy.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove old, unproductive canes, crossing branches, and any dead or damaged wood. Thin out dense growth to improve air circulation and fruit exposure.

Aim for a balance of fruiting and vegetative canes.

Propagate by layering, where a low-growing stem is bent down and covered with soil to root. Tip layering is effective. Stem cuttings can also be taken in summer and rooted in a moist medium.

Division of established clumps in early spring is another method.

Repotting is generally not necessary for established outdoor plants. For container-grown specimens, repot every 2-3 years in early spring into a slightly larger container with fresh potting mix.

This is primarily to refresh the soil and manage root growth.
