Ensure good drainage in the pot to avoid issues.
Prune Sirdavidia solannona to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or leggy stems at any time of year.
Light pruning can be done after flowering to tidy up the plant and promote new blooms.
Propagate Sirdavidia solannona from stem cuttings. Take 4-6 inch cuttings from healthy stems in spring or summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.
Keep moist and warm until roots form.
Repot Sirdavidia solannona every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Use a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining potting mix. The best time to repot is in early spring before new growth begins.
