How to keep Pittosporum Brevicalyx.

Water

The Pittosporum brevicalyx thrives with consistent moisture and requires regular watering during the spring and summer. However, it is important not to over-water it. For newly planted specimens, water them 3-4 times a week for the first two months, then switch to weekly watering. In winter, reduce the watering frequency and only water once the soil has dried sufficiently.

Pruning

To promote healthy growth and enhance the aesthetic appeal of Pittosporum brevicalyx, prune it in early spring. Start by removing any dead or damaged branches, and then thin out dense areas. This practice improves air circulation, encourages new growth, and helps prevent diseases and pests.
