This tropical shrub thrives in part shade and consistently moist, well-draining soil, such as loamy or peaty types. Protect it from frost, as it is only suitable for USDA zones 9–11. Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Pruning can be done after flowering to shape the plant.
