Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in fall and winter, providing only enough to keep the soil from becoming completely dry.

Avoid waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot.

Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches. Pinching back young shoots can encourage bushier growth.

Regular light pruning can maintain a desirable form and size.

Propagate from seeds sown in spring, after a period of cold stratification. Cuttings can also be taken in late spring or early summer and rooted in moist potting mix.

Ensure cuttings are taken from healthy, disease-free parent plants.

Repot young plants annually in spring. Mature plants can be repotted every 2-3 years or when root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current root ball to avoid overwatering.
