Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially in containers.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged stems. Light pruning can be done after flowering to encourage a bushier habit.

Propagation is typically done by seed sown in autumn or early spring. Softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings can be taken in summer and rooted under humid conditions with bottom heat.

Repot young plants annually or biennially in spring. Mature plants can remain in their pots for several years. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot only slightly larger than the current root ball.
