-Water only when the soil feels dry to touch. This plant does not like fluoride and may suffer discoloration if the tap water contains a large amount of fluoride (around 0.7 percent). Use distilled or non-fluoridated water at all times & the soil never be allowed to dry out completely.
 
Soil

-Apply organic fertilisers during spring months and rainy seasons. Loosen the soil but don’t damage the roots to allow nutrients and water to be better taken up by the plant.
 
Tree Care
It can be propagated from tip cuttings taken with 3 or 4 leaves attached. You will need to put the tip cuttings in 8cm (3 inch) pots filled with a moistened rooting mixture consisting of equal parts peat and sand. Pack them neatly into a plastic bag and keep them in a temperature of 21-24 degrees C in partially shaded positions. Alternatively, could you place the bags inside a heated propagator case? Unlikely that they will require additional water for four to six weeks. After rooting has occurred, remove the pot for plastic bag or propagator and begin to water the new plant moderately, moistening the potting mixture at each watering and allowing the top centimetre (0.4 inches) or so of the mixture to dry out before watering again. When roots appear on the surface of the mixture, move your plant into a slightly larger pot with standard potting mixture used for adult plants and treat it as you would an adult plant.
