Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is less active.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging, especially in containers.

Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove dead or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done to control size.

Heavy pruning should be done in early spring before new growth begins to encourage vigorous flowering.

Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining potting mix, keeping them moist and warm. Alternatively, seeds can be sown in spring, but germination may be erratic.

Patience is key for successful propagation.

Repot young plants annually in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one.

Ensure the new pot has drainage holes to prevent root rot.
