Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is a common cause of root rot. Reduce watering significantly during winter dormancy to prevent rot.

Water thoroughly when you do water, ensuring excess drains away.

Prune in spring to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or leggy stems. Pruning also helps to manage the plant's size and can be used to propagate new plants from cuttings.

Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take cuttings in spring or summer, allow them to callus for a few days, and then plant in well-draining soil. Roots usually form within a few weeks.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. Repot in spring before the active growing season begins to minimize stress on the plant.
