Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering in winter to prevent root rot. Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, which this species dislikes.
Overwatering is a common cause of problems.
Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Pruning can also be used to shape the plant and control its size.
Light trimming can encourage bushier growth.
Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Use a rooting hormone to improve success rates. Plant cuttings in a well-draining medium and keep them consistently moist and warm.
Alternatively, air layering can be successful.
Repot every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Repot in spring before the active growing season begins.
