Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering in autumn and winter, providing just enough to keep the soil from becoming bone dry.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing stems. Regular pinching of the tips during the growing season can promote more blooms.

For controlling vigorous growth, trim as needed.

Propagate by seeds sown in spring, or by stem cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Seeds germinate best with bottom heat.

Cuttings should be rooted in a well-draining potting mix and kept moist until established. Division of established plants is also possible.

Repot in spring, before new growth begins, when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a standard houseplant or cactus mix, to ensure adequate aeration and drainage.
