Water
Water consistently when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during cooler months to prevent over-saturation. Ensure good drainage in the pot.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water consistently when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during cooler months to prevent over-saturation. Ensure good drainage in the pot.
Prune to maintain shape and size, and to remove any dead or overgrown branches. Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best done after flowering. This encourages bushier growth and better flowering.
Propagate through stem cuttings, taken in spring or summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.
Keep the soil consistently moist and provide warmth and humidity for successful rooting.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound, typically in spring. Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one with fresh, well-draining potting mix.
Handle roots gently to minimize transplant shock.
