Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in autumn and winter to prevent waterlogging and root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid over-saturation, especially for container-grown plants.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This encourages a more compact and bushier plant with improved flowering.

Light pruning can also be done after flowering to maintain shape.

Easily propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Insert cuttings into a well-draining compost mix and keep them moist and warm.

Alternatively, seeds can be sown in spring, though they may require stratification.

Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years in spring, or when they become root-bound. Use a good quality, well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one to allow for continued root growth.
