Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in fall and winter to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, as this plant is sensitive to overwatering.

Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and remove spent flower stalks. Remove any dead or damaged stems at any time of year. Avoid heavy pruning, as this can stress the plant.

The goal is to encourage bushiness and healthy new growth.

Propagate from seed sown in early spring or autumn. Stratification may improve germination rates. Alternatively, take cuttings in late spring or early summer and root them in a well-draining medium.

Patience is key, as germination can be slow.

Repot only when necessary, typically every 2-3 years, preferably in spring before new growth begins. Use a well-draining, gritty potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one, as this plant prefers to be somewhat root-bound.
