Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove dead or damaged branches anytime. Light pruning can be done to control size.
Easily propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Can also be grown from seed, but germination may be slow and variable.
Repot young plants annually or when root-bound. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years in spring. Use a well-draining potting mix.
