Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. During hot, dry periods, increase watering frequency. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant.
Prune immediately after flowering to shape the shrub and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done in late winter to remove any frost-damaged tips.
Propagate by softwood cuttings taken in early summer or semi-hardwood cuttings in mid to late summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining potting mix in a propagator or humid environment.
Alternatively, propagate from seed in autumn.
Repot young plants every 1-2 years in spring before new growth starts. Mature plants can be repotted less frequently, typically every 3-4 years, or when rootbound. Use a larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting soil.
