Water consistently when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this species prefers well-drained conditions. Reduce watering during cooler months to prevent root rot.

Ensure adequate drainage in pots or garden beds.

Prune to shape the plant, remove dead or crossing branches, and encourage bushier growth. Light pruning can be done after flowering to maintain form.

For larger specimens, significant structural pruning should be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Propagate primarily through seeds, which may require stratification. Cuttings can also be taken from semi-hardwood in late summer or early autumn.

Ensure cuttings have at least two nodes and are treated with rooting hormone before planting in a well-draining medium.

Repot young plants every 1-2 years or when root-bound. Mature plants require less frequent repotting, typically every 3-4 years. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Repot in spring before the active growing season commences.
