How to Care for the Plant
Water
Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
Pruning
They are easily propagated from softwood cuttings and are seldom attacked by pests. It will grow and flower with the most meager feeding. Frequent light pruning is necessary to keep it compact and bushy. Prune back hard after flowering during midwinter.
Soil
They need ample sunlight, good drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite.
