Water regularly, especially during dry spells, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is dormant. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

For established plants, thin out older stems to encourage new growth and maintain an open structure for better air circulation.

Propagate from hardwood cuttings taken in late autumn or early winter. Insert cuttings into well-drained soil and keep them in a protected, cool location. Alternatively, softwood cuttings can be taken in early summer.

Repot young plants every 2-3 years, or when root-bound, typically in early spring before growth starts. Use a good quality, well-draining potting mix.

Mature plants may not require frequent repotting but benefit from top-dressing.
