Water
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during cooler, less active growth periods in winter.
Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.

Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during cooler, less active growth periods in winter.
Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.
Prune to maintain shape and remove any dead, damaged, or leggy growth. Light pruning can be done anytime to encourage bushier growth. For more significant shaping, prune in spring before new growth emerges.
Use clean, sharp tools.
Propagation is typically done through stem cuttings. Take 10-15 cm cuttings from healthy stems in spring or early summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.
Keep moist and warm until roots form.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Spring is the ideal time. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
Use a well-draining potting mix, typically a peat-based mix with perlite.
