Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. This plant is adapted to arid conditions and overwatering can lead to root rot.
Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Avoid heavy pruning as it can stress the plant.
Propagate from stem cuttings taken in spring or summer. Cuttings should be allowed to callus before planting in well-draining soil.
Repotting is rarely necessary due to its slow growth and tolerance for confined conditions. If needed, repot in spring into a slightly larger container with fresh, well-draining soil.
