Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water thoroughly 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. Ensure good drainage to prevent excess moisture buildup.
Prune to maintain desired shape and size, and to remove any dead or damaged foliage. This can be done at any time of year. Use clean, sharp pruning shears. Light trimming can encourage bushier growth.
Propagation is typically done through stem cuttings. Take cuttings of about 10-15 cm from healthy stems in spring or summer. Plant them in moist potting mix and keep them in a warm, humid environment until roots develop.
Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Spring is the ideal time for repotting.
