Water
Water moderately when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering during cooler months. Ensure good drainage in the pot to prevent excessive moisture retention.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water moderately when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering during cooler months. Ensure good drainage in the pot to prevent excessive moisture retention.
Prune to maintain shape and remove any dead or damaged leaves. Trim lower leaves as they age and yellow to keep the plant tidy.
This species can develop into a small tree with aerial roots, so pruning can also manage its size and form.
Propagate by suckers or plantlets that emerge from the base or aerial roots. Carefully detach these with a sharp knife and plant them in well-draining potting mix.
Keep moist and warm until established, which may take several weeks.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or succulent blend, with added perlite or sand.
