Reduce watering frequency during the dormant winter months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.
Prune Tricliceras lobatum to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Light pruning can be done after flowering to shape the plant and remove spent blooms.
Propagate Tricliceras lobatum from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant them in a well-draining potting mix.
Keep them consistently moist and in a warm, humid environment until roots form.
