It prefers growing in full-sun environment; it also manages to grow in partial sun, but with less leaves and flowers. It doesn’t like waterlogging in the root system, so well-drained medium is preferred. Moderately drought-tolerant, water only when the medium dries. Apply long-active fertilizers once in a season. Propagated by cuttings, grafting, air layering and seeds; cuttings are the main method by cutting the healthy mature branches about 30-50 cm long, which can be done throughout the year

具有生長迅速與早熟的特性，植株1.5m高就能開花。可用2~3呎的盆器栽培或種植於庭園不積水處。本種是花、葉俱美的緬梔原種，花徑大且圓滿，作為育種使用亦有極高價值。

The plant grows rapidly and matures early; it produces flowers when reaching at a height of 1.5 m. They can be planted in a container of 2-3 feet wide or in a well-drained location in gardens. This is an original variety producing stunning flowers and foliage; the flowers are large and showy, highly valued in the use of breeding.
