Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the growing season. Reduce watering in winter, allowing the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially in cooler months.

Prune to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Pinch back young shoots regularly to promote branching. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms.

Hard pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Easily propagated from stem cuttings taken in spring or early summer. Use a rooting hormone and plant in a moist, well-draining potting mix.

Cuttings should root within a few weeks in a warm, bright location, avoiding direct sunlight.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be repotted less frequently, only when root-bound.

Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally one formulated for fuchsias or a general-purpose mix with added perlite for aeration.
