Fertilizer: Fertilize the plant every two weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. In the winter, fertilize less frequently.
-
Pruning: Prune the plant to maintain its shape and remove any yellowing or damaged leaves. Trim the leaves to maintain the plant’s shape and promote new growth.
-
Repotting: Repot the plant every 1-2 years to maintain its health and growth. Use a slightly larger pot and fresh soil.
