Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top centimeter of soil feels dry to the touch.
Avoid letting the plant dry out completely, especially during warmer months, as this can stress the plant and lead to wilting.
Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage more blooms and prevent seed formation. Trim back leggy stems in late spring or early summer to maintain a compact shape and promote bushier growth.
Remove any yellowing or dead foliage promptly.
Easily propagated from seed sown in early spring or autumn, either indoors or directly outdoors in a prepared seedbed. Softwood cuttings can also be taken in late spring or early summer and rooted in moist, well-draining potting mix.
Repot young plants annually in spring or when they become root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix.
Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years or when necessary.
