Water regularly during the growing season, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering in winter, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially in containers.

Prune after flowering to maintain desired shape and size, and to encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

Heavy pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to rejuvenate the plant.

Propagate by softwood cuttings taken in late spring or early summer, or by semi-hardwood cuttings in late summer. Layering is also effective. Seeds can be sown in autumn or spring, but may require stratification.

Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years in spring, or when they become root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot one size larger than the current one to allow for root expansion.
