Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil is dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant winter months.

Ensure good drainage in the pot to prevent excess moisture retention.

Prune to maintain shape and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done at any time, but heavier pruning is best performed in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Use clean, sharp pruning tools.

Propagate from stem cuttings taken during the spring or summer. Allow cuttings to callus over for a few days before planting in a well-draining potting mix.

Keep the soil slightly moist and provide bright, indirect light until roots form.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering.

Repot in spring before the active growing season.
