Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Reduce watering slightly during cooler periods, but avoid letting the soil dry out completely.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune to remove spent flower stalks and yellow or damaged leaves. Cut back old canes close to the ground after flowering to encourage new growth. Light pruning can also be done to maintain shape and size.

This promotes vigorous new shoots and vibrant blooms.

Propagate by division of rhizomes during spring. Carefully separate pieces of the rhizome, ensuring each piece has at least one growth bud. Plant divisions in well-draining potting mix and water lightly.

Keep in a warm, humid environment until new growth appears.

Repot container-grown plants every 2-3 years or when they become root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Repot in spring before the active growing season begins to minimize stress.
