Water
Water consistently, allowing the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering slightly during cooler, dormant periods to prevent over-saturation.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water consistently, allowing the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering slightly during cooler, dormant periods to prevent over-saturation.
Prune to shape and maintain desired size, or to remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. This can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Use clean, sharp pruning shears for precise cuts.
Propagate from stem cuttings taken during the growing season. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix. Keep moist and warm until roots develop, which can take several weeks.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound, typically in spring. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Use a well-draining potting mix to ensure good aeration for the roots.
