Watch out for

Mealybugs: Isolate the plant and treat with a systemic insecticide or dab spots with alcohol.

Vine weevil: Apply nematodes to the soil in autumn or use a systemic granular treatment.

Aphids: Spray with insecticidal soap or introduce natural predators like ladybirds.

Root rot: Ensure well-draining compost and allow soil to dry out completely between waterings.

Sunburn: Acclimate plants gradually to full sun and provide shade during peak summer heat.
