Water Mimusops coriacea thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Allow excess water to drain completely to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering frequency during the dormant winter months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.

Prune Mimusops coriacea to maintain its shape and size, or to remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. The best time to prune is after flowering. Use clean, sharp pruning tools to make precise cuts.

Heavy pruning can be done to rejuvenate older plants, but do so gradually over a couple of seasons.

Propagate Mimusops coriacea from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer or early autumn.

Select healthy, disease-free shoots and dip the cut end in rooting hormone before planting in a well-draining, moist potting mix. Maintain high humidity and warmth for successful rooting.

Repot young Mimusops coriacea every 1-2 years in spring, or when rootbound. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of potting soil, perlite, and sand.

Water thoroughly after repotting to settle the soil.
