Water Macrotyloma africanum consistently when the top 2-3 cm of soil feel dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering during its dormant period in cooler months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.

Prune Macrotyloma africanum to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Pinch back the tips of young stems to promote branching. Remove any dead, damaged, or leggy stems as needed.

Pruning can be done lightly after flowering.

Propagate Macrotyloma africanum by seeds or stem cuttings. Seeds can be sown directly into well-draining soil after the last frost.

Stem cuttings, taken in spring or early summer, should be rooted in moist potting mix under warm conditions.

Repot Macrotyloma africanum every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Repotting is best done in early spring before new growth begins.
