Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering slightly during cooler months to prevent root rot, especially if grown in cooler conditions.

Ensure good drainage to avoid standing water.

Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Pinching back new growth can encourage bushier development.

Avoid heavy pruning, as this species can be slow to recover. Focus on maintaining a natural, pleasing form.

Propagation is typically done from seeds sown in spring or semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Seeds may require stratification.

Cuttings should be placed in a well-draining medium and kept in a warm, humid environment until established. Patience is key.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be repotted less frequently, perhaps every 3-4 years, or when root-bound.

Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat, perlite, and compost. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one.
