Water Ixora finlaysoniana thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering slightly during cooler winter months, but never allow the soil to dry out completely. Ensure good drainage in the pot.

Prune Ixora finlaysoniana after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove dead or damaged stems and spent flower clusters.

Light pruning can be done throughout the year to manage size and promote flowering.

Propagate Ixora finlaysoniana from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in spring or summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining, moist potting mix.

Cover with a plastic bag or use a propagation dome to maintain humidity until roots form.

Repot Ixora finlaysoniana every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Spring is the ideal time. Use a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting mix, preferably one formulated for acid-loving plants.

This provides fresh nutrients and space for root growth.
