During hot, dry conditions, water may need to be increased to every 3-4 days.

Pruning should be done by removing any dead, damaged, or diseased branches, as well as any weak, spindly, or misshapen branches. This should be done carefully to avoid cutting off any healthy, green shoots, as it could damage the growth potential of the plant. Additionally, if the plant is getting too large or if you want to encourage a more upright growth habit, you can prune it back slightly, with long shoots being cut back to about 2-thirds of their length. This should be done carefully to maintain the shape of the plant.

Pruning should be done sparingly, and only when necessary, to help maintain the shape and overall health of the plant.
