    Sunlight: Prefers full sun to partial shade. In warmer climates, some protection during the hottest hours is beneficial.

    Humidity: Appreciates some ambient humidity. Misting can be beneficial during dry periods.

    Pruning: Prune in spring and summer to maintain a compact form and encourage fine ramification. Responds well to regular pruning.
