Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water Sapium ciliatum thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering frequency during winter months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings. Ensure good drainage in the pot.
Prune Sapium ciliatum to maintain shape and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
For shaping, light trimming can be done after flowering if necessary.
Sapium ciliatum can be propagated by stem cuttings taken in spring or early summer. Use a rooting hormone to encourage faster root development.
Plant cuttings in a well-draining potting mix and keep them moist and in a warm, bright location until rooted.
Repot Sapium ciliatum every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one. Repotting is best done in spring before the active growing season commences.
Use a well-draining potting compost.
