Consider slow-release granules and monitor soil conditions regularly.

Pruning: Chonemorpha splendens thrives with strategic pruning in early spring, before new growth. Remove dead branches, shape for fullness, and use clean tools to enhance air circulation, prevent disease, and promote bushiness. Well-pruned chonemorpha splendens enjoys vigorous, aesthetically pleasing growth.

Propagation: Chonemorpha splendens propagation primarily uses stem cuttings from healthy, semi-hardwood segments. Prepare with clean cuts and optional rooting hormone, then place in a nutrient-rich, well-draining substrate with high humidity.
