Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the growing season. Reduce watering in winter when the plant is less active. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape, remove dead or damaged branches, and improve air circulation. Light pruning can be done after flowering to encourage bushier growth.

Avoid heavy pruning, as it can stress the plant.

Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Use a rooting hormone to improve success rates. Alternatively, propagate from seeds sown in autumn, but germination can be slow and erratic.

Cuttings are generally more reliable for consistent results.

Repot young plants annually or every two years in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-4 years. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one.

Repotting helps refresh the soil and provides more space for root growth.
