Water regularly, especially during dry periods, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water regularly, especially during dry periods, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant.
Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or damaged stems at any time. Heavy pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Root cuttings in a well-draining potting mix, keeping them moist and in a warm, humid environment.
Seed propagation is also possible but may not produce true-to-type plants.
Repot every 2-3 years in spring, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot slightly larger than the current one to allow for root growth.
