Water Tickberry regularly during its active growing season, ensuring the soil dries out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter to prevent root rot.

Aim for consistently moist but not waterlogged soil for optimal health and flowering.

Prune Tickberry after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing stems. Light trimming can be done to control size and promote a more compact form.

Heavy pruning can be done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

Propagate Tickberry from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer or from seed sown in autumn or spring. Cuttings should be treated with rooting hormone and planted in a well-draining potting mix.

Seeds require stratification for best germination rates.

Repot Tickberry every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound, preferably in early spring before new growth emerges. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one.

Ensure adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
