Well-draining potting mix with peat and perlite or coarse sand
Keep soil moderately moist during growth; allow topsoil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce frequency in winter dormancy.
Bright indirect light preferred for variegation; tolerates partial shade but blooms better in sun. Avoid scorching midday heat.
Apply balanced liquid fertilizer monthly from April to September. Do not fertilize during dormancy.
Trim trailing stems regularly to maintain shape and encourage bushiness. Remove dead flowers promptly.
