Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in cooler months.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, especially during periods of less active growth.

Prune to maintain shape, control size, and encourage bushier growth. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing stems. Pinch back young plants to promote branching.

Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Propagate from seeds sown in spring, or from stem cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Seeds germinate best with bottom heat.

Cuttings should be rooted in a well-draining potting mix and kept in a warm, humid environment until established.

Repot every 1-2 years in spring, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot with drainage holes to prevent water accumulation around the roots.

Handle gently to avoid damaging the root system.
