Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter, providing just enough to prevent the soil from becoming bone dry.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially for young plants.

Prune to shape the tree and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Avoid heavy pruning, as Enterolobium schomburgkii generally maintains a pleasing natural form.

Propagation is typically done from seeds, which may require scarification or soaking to improve germination rates. Sow seeds in a well-draining potting mix and keep consistently moist and warm.

Cuttings are also possible but can be more challenging to root successfully.

Repot young plants every 1-2 years, or when they become root-bound, typically in spring. Mature trees are less frequently repotted and prefer to be established.

Use a well-draining potting mix and a slightly larger container to accommodate root growth.
