Water
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feel dry. Allow soil to dry out slightly between waterings, but avoid prolonged drought. Reduce watering significantly during winter dormancy to prevent root rot.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feel dry. Allow soil to dry out slightly between waterings, but avoid prolonged drought. Reduce watering significantly during winter dormancy to prevent root rot.
Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done to shape the plant and encourage bushier growth.
Propagation is typically done by cuttings taken in spring or early summer. Use a rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix. Keep moist and warm until roots form.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound, preferably in spring. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering issues.
