Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in fall and winter.

Schinus latifolia prefers well-draining soil and is moderately drought-tolerant once established. Avoid waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

Prune to shape the tree and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Heavy pruning is best avoided unless necessary for structural improvement or size control.

Propagate primarily through seeds, which require stratification before sowing. Softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings can also be taken in summer, treated with rooting hormone, and placed in a well-draining medium.

Successful propagation often requires patience.

Repot young plants every 1-2 years in spring. Mature specimens generally do not require frequent repotting and are best left undisturbed.

Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a cactus or succulent blend, when repotting.
