Water deeply when the top 5-10 cm of soil is dry. Avoid overwatering, as *Ricinocarpos pinifolius* prefers well-drained conditions.

Reduce watering frequency during winter or cooler months when growth slows down to prevent root rot.

Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

Light trimming can be done to control size, but avoid heavy pruning as it can reduce flowering in subsequent seasons.

Propagate from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining, sterile potting mix. Maintain high humidity and consistent moisture until roots form.

Repot young plants every 2-3 years or when root-bound, preferably in spring. Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of potting soil and perlite.

Choose a pot only slightly larger than the current one to avoid waterlogging.
