- Planting:
- For outdoor planting, choose a location with bright, indirect light to full sun. In colder climates, it is best to plant in a sheltered spot or use as an indoor plant.
- For container planting, use a pot with drainage holes and a well-draining potting mix.
- Watering:
- Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
- Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when growth slows down.
- Pruning:
- Prune as needed to maintain the desired shape and remove any dead or damaged leaves.
- Regular pruning helps promote a bushier growth habit and enhances overall plant health.
- Fertilizing:
- Apply a balanced, liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) to support healthy growth.
- Avoid over-fertilizing, which can lead to excessive leaf growth at the expense of root health.
- Pest and Disease Control:
- Monitor for common pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale insects.
- Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil as needed.
- Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal diseases like leaf spot.
