Water Vesalea coriacea thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil is dry. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.

Reduce watering in winter to allow the soil to dry out more between waterings, mimicking its natural dormant period.

Prune Vesalea coriacea in early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches to maintain a healthy structure and promote air circulation.

Lightly shape as needed to encourage bushier growth.

Propagate Vesalea coriacea from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer. Use a rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.

Keep the cuttings moist and warm, ideally in a propagator with bottom heat, until roots form.

Repot Vesalea coriacea every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Use a gritty, well-draining compost.

Spring is the ideal time for repotting, allowing the plant to establish in its new container before the active growing season.
