Barbusano prefers consistently moist soil, but dislikes waterlogged conditions. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering frequency during winter months when the plant's growth slows.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune Barbusano to maintain shape and size, or to remove dead or diseased branches. The best time for significant pruning is in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Light trimming can be done throughout the growing season.

Barbusano can be propagated from seeds, though germination can be slow and erratic. Stem cuttings taken in summer are a more reliable method.

Use a rooting hormone and maintain high humidity and warmth for successful rooting.

Repot young Barbusano plants every 2-3 years, or when they become root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Older, larger plants may only need repotting every 4-5 years.

Repot in spring before the active growing season commences.
