  6. Fertilization: Feed monthly during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer to encourage vigorous growth and blooming. Reduce feeding in the winter months.

  7. Pruning: Prune regularly to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or damaged branches to keep the plant healthy.

  8. Support: Provide a trellis, fence, or other support structures for climbing varieties. Train and tie the vines as they grow to guide their direction.
