Water Gynura cusimbua thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feel dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during winter months when the plant's growth slows down.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.

Prune Gynura cusimbua to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Pinch back the tips of young stems regularly. Remove any leggy or overgrown shoots to promote compactness.

Pruning can be done anytime during the growing season, but heavier pruning is best done in spring.

Gynura cusimbua is easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take cuttings of about 10-15 cm in length from healthy stems. Remove the lower leaves and insert the cuttings into moist potting mix or water.

Roots typically form within a few weeks, after which they can be planted.

Repot Gynura cusimbua every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Spring is the ideal time to repot, coinciding with the start of active growth.
