Semi hardwood cuttings taken during summer and apply bottom heat.

Botanic information
Leaf: The juvenile leaves are narrow-oblong maturing to oblong-ovate with deeply serrated reddish margins. The texture is thick-leathery and the underside is dull green with a short reddish petiole that extends into a prominent mid rib. 

Flower: The pendulous white bell-shaped bisexual flowers have 3-5 sepals and petals with toothed margins and are arranged in a small raceme that appears during summer.

Fruit: The ovoid purple-brown drupe has a hard stone that contains 2 to 5 cells each with a single seed. The small seeds are viable but germinate slowly and the plant is commonly reproduced vegetatively.
