Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Reduce watering significantly during winter months to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions.

Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done to shape the plant and encourage bushier growth. Avoid heavy pruning.

Easily propagated from seed sown in spring or semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Seeds require stratification before sowing. Cuttings should be treated with rooting hormone and kept in a warm, humid environment.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Repot in spring before the active growing season.
